I abandoned the bird for the blue sky - hoping that SciTwitter will also take flight there. I know Science Twitter still works and works well, but I just could not bring myself to stay.
At the ISE meeting in the @FieldMuseum with @marion_eisenhut, now behind the scenes in the herbarium (Marion went to the dinosaurs to look behind the scenes).
4 Million species including fossil ones! So cool (and I later saw the grasses and plenty of CAM plants, too).
Hey #MAdLand2023! Look
what I found in the Field Museum Botanical library. Made me think about you. Guess why. 😀
Quite a bit of iGEM history at Bielefeld University:

Postdoc offer in @ADHansonLab adhansonlab.org/ in Florida. Andrew’s is one of the most creative, mission-oriented SynBio Labs of our time for engineering plant & microbial metabolism applicable to agriculture & the bioeconomy. Starting date *very* flexible. Check it out 👇
TF binding data and expression data show that multiple TFs compete at single motifs. This explains puzzling complementation data, ie. for HY5, how TFs can be activators or repressors at different sites and what limits prediction of expression from sequence

Don't miss your chance to join a fab #ECR community at our upcoming GRS. Don't delay - we are at 80% capacity and talks are considered from abstracts submitted by 29 Jan. Find more info and apply here: grc.org/co2-assimilation-in-…
Whenever I return to Twitter, I find gems. Testing #ChatGPT is on my list for my upcoming sabbatical.
We identified new transcriptional regulators of photosynthesis using ML and validated them in planta. We find TFs with different roles; find PIFs that do not repress, MYBS1 and NFYB3 as general activators and BBX14 and 15 uncoupling ETC and CBBc. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
work done with @HalpapeWiebke @DonatWulf @sanjaze @janiksielemann @apmweber @marion_eisenhut - a long time in the making, this one
Congrats to Svante Pääbo for this achievement (but my health and/or life was recently saved based on research done by somebody else named #katalinkariko) There is still Wednesday. #NobelPrize 1/2
BREAKING NEWS:
The 2022 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Svante Pääbo “for his discoveries concerning the genomes of extinct hominins and human evolution.”
…according to Alfred Nobel's will of 1895, are awarded to "those who, during the preceding year, have conferred the greatest benefit to humankind." (From en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nobe…) I do not understand this committee at all. 2/2
Just heard @robin_buell talk at the @chemodiversity meeting about omics in Catharanthus done with @OConnor_lab. I am blown away by the data and the results: A new transporter, a reductase with a new function. It is on @biorxiv_plants:

Jerbs! I have two positions. 1) Establishing gene expression atlases for ~400 plants (bit.ly/3RceJ8D) and 2) Constructing protein-protein interaction networks for plants with a new method bit.ly/3C7EEdp
