Thanks to #PlantBio2025 and @ASPB for the opportunity to organize the plenary session on single-cell and spatial biology in agriculture. Incredible talks and exciting progress in this rapidly advancing field! 🌱🧬

A thought-provoking talk by Cary Fowler on “Food Security in 2050: 3 AM Worries” at #PlantBio2025. Insights on global priorities in R&D investment. Are we going in the right direction to achieve food security and the roles of the US? 🌍🌾 #AgResearch #FoodSecurity

The 3MT Thesis Competition is so inspiring #PlantBio2025 . Smart and articulate students presenting their cutting-edge research in a TED-style format!

Up next at the Presidential Plenary Seminar: Bob Schmitz takes the stage to discuss “Leveraging Plant Epigenomics to Decode the Complexity of Non-Coding Regulation.” 🌱🧬 #PlantBio2025

Congratulations @kcox-bioguy.bsky.social for your ASPB award. Well deserved! #PlantBio2025

Welcome remarks and awards ceremony kicking off the opening of #PlantBio2025 🌱✨ Excited to celebrate excellence and innovation in plant biology!

Active learning through creative inquiry (CI) projects with undergrads and dynamic working environment. 🦠🐅

Yes, it’s pretty neat!

Jones and Dangl” lock — what are the odds? Jeff says he doesn’t know about it. Whether it’s “JJ” @jonathandgjones.bsky.social or someone else, it’s a fitting tribute to the duo that gave us the zigzag model back in 2001. Jeff got this pic from @derekseveri.bsky.social #2025ISMPMI #PlantImmunity

We are hiring! If you have experience in plant genomics + AI, or promoter engineering + synthetic biology, check out our two open postdoc positions (computational + wetlab): www.vandepoelelab.be/Jobs please re-share RT #ERC

John Matthew McDowell: A Visionary Leader in Molecular Oomycete-Plant Interactions and a Wonderful Mentor and Friend to Many | Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions®

We lost a Grangle family member, a friend, and a visionary scientist. “A note from Jeff Dangl: John McDowell was a former MPMI Editor and great membr of our community and that it is apt that his memory be recognized at the current #2025ISMPMI

During yesterday’s free afternoon from #2025ISMPMI, we revisited the Rhine River — a place filled with memories from our first date @tigertrails.bsky.social 22 years ago. To another 50 years….

The legacy of the Dangl/Grant “Grangl” Lab lives on at #2025ISMPMI — generations of scientists, one shared origin story, countless discoveries. 🌱🧪 #Grangllab #PlantScience #MentorImpact

And so it begins — #2025ISMPMI in the name of Jeff and Sarah! Long live the legacy of #GrangleLab! 🔬🌿

Ready for #2025ISMPMI in Cologne with @tigertrails.bsky.social ! Excited to connect, share, and see some cool data 🍚🔬🌱 #MPMI #PlantMicrobeInteractions #Cologne

Enjoyed a beautiful boat trip organized by #ICAR2025 — great views and great company while exploring the charming city of Ghent!

Now in Workshop 6: „Single-Cell Transcriptome and Spatial Biology“ set up by @smukhtarlab.bsky.social and Ceyhun Kayihan with Leonie Luginbuehl @lluginbuehl.bsky.social Univ. of Cambridge, UK, on single cell analysis to investigate cell-type specific transcriptional control of C4 photosynthesis !

Join us at 2:00 PM in Workshop 6: Single-Cell Transcriptome and Spatial Biology!
📍 Location: Kraakhuis

Check out the lineup of speakers.

Let’s explore the frontiers of cellular resolution together! 🧬✨ #SingleCell #ICAR2025

Quick trip to NC—great to catch up with Jeff Dangl and Sarah Grant! Always inspiring conversations. Looking forward to reconnecting at MPMI and continuing the long-standing Grangl lab dinner tradition in Cologne! 🌱✈️🍽️ #PlantScience #MPMI2025 #GranglTradition
