Amazing collaborative work with the Yeh lab @stanfordpress.bsky.social Attached image from @Sarah_Frail @carnegiescience.bsky.social
📣 📣 Wondering what allow diatoms to grow in the ever-changing environment 🌦️of the ocean🌊?
Check out or latest work where we develop genome-wide CRISPR screen to unravel the genes🧬 critical for diatoms under dynamic light conditions☀️🌥️👇
Spoiler alert: it is (almost) not about NPQ 👀 but CEF 🫣
Excited to have been invited to the Annual Symposium of the Botanical Society of Japan 👀🦠🌱🌾🌿
So glad to have given a course on photosynthesis ☀️ last week at the @szndohrn.bsky.social , it's very humbling to see such a historical place for marine biology 👀🐠🐟🦠
Glad to see the recognition of Vincent Boudreau's amazing work 🥳🥳🥳 and to have taken part in the journey ☺️

Part of the lab was at York last week for the CCM11 conference! Amazing science, wonderful people as always 🥰
Silly artwork alert 🚨from our favorite model organisms 🫣🙃 (work of Phaeodactylum photosynthesis in dynamic light to be released very soon btw 👀)
🚨 We’re hiring! The Burlacot Lab @carnegiescience.bsky.social is recruiting a Postdoc to study how photosynthetic electron flows power CO₂ fixation in algae 🌱🧫
Cutting-edge microscopy + biophysics + sustainability 🚀

It was a lot of fun to have @dstrenkert.bsky.social from @msudoeplantlab.bsky.social visit us and present her research on Ferredoxins last week 🥰 @carnegiescience.bsky.social
Energy trade-offs under fluctuating light govern bioenergetics and growth in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Cool to see today the work of @noodlyscientist.bsky.social featured at the @stanfordenergy.bsky.social symposium 👀 💚🦠
@carnegiescience.bsky.social
📢Out today! Our work discovering that bioenergetic 🔋homeostasis in dynamic environments is periodicity-dependent ☀️🌥️🌤️⛅️🌦️☀️⛅️
We show that maintaining a healthy photosynthetic cell 💚requires mechanisms with diverse bandwidths of importance 👀

👀 Sneak pick on our soon publicly available discovery that photosynthetic cells maintain bioenergetics homeostasis in a light periodicity-dependent manner⛅🌥️🌤️☀️ we reveal that each electron flow has their own bandwidth of physiological importance. Stay tuned👀
This week we did our annual retreat at the beautiful foghouse (without the fog 🥳). Glad to have such a great team ❤️ @carnegiescience.bsky.social
📢On this Friday's episode of The Green Light 💚Graham Peers, Associate Professor @colorado.edu joins us to discuss his journey from oceanography to algal biology, exploring how microalgae, especially diatoms, use unique adaptations to perform photosynthesis.👇
