Overjoyed to announce that my first, 1st author paper is published in Nature Communications! Thank you so much to all co-authors, including @Interactome & @LauraRehneke for their input and hard work which helped make this paper what it is nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
A short 🧵
Thanks Dan 😁 Honoured to be awarded this Fellowship to study the influence of histone modifications on plant defence memory 🌱
Excited to return to plant pathology & explore how epigenetics shapes long-term immunity 🧬
Incredibly grateful for the opportunity and support!
Huge congratulations to @ROsborne_93 for being awarded this prestigious 3-year BBSRC fellowship to investigate novel molecular mechanisms controlling plant defence memory at @UoBbiosciences @LES_UniBham 🦠🌱🧬

Delighted that work from my postdoc was published in @Dev_Cell! We show that the conditional repression of PIF hub genes in Arabidopsis is mediated by PRC2 activity. See @DJ_Gibbs thread and enjoy reading!
For future activity catch me on @bluesky @drosborneplantsci.bsky.social
Very happy to see our latest paper by @ROsborne_93 et al out today in @Dev_Cell. In this work we identify a role for VRN2-PRC2 in regulating light-responsive growth in Arabidopsis through the conditional epigenetic repression of PIF signalling. cell.com/developmental-cell/…

Excellent work all! 👏🏻
Early start but en route to @UniFreiburg for the FRSA! See you soon @SjonHartman and fellow Rising Stars 😄
Really excited to be working with @ThePlantCell and all the other AFEs 🥳 It's truly an honour to be part of the team🌱
The Plant Cell welcomes 2024 Assistant Features Editors. Congratulations to all of our successful applicants. We look forward to working with this terrific group of early career researchers in 2024! buff.ly/3Qe4O5g @ASPB
It's been a work in progress since January but my ChIP Sequencing samples are finally ready to be shipped! 😬 #DevelopmentalHypoxia #NoMoreNuclei 🌱

@ROsborne_93, @LauraRehneke, @Interactome and colleagues identify 106 candidate effectors from the symbiont Serendipita indica and reveal their roles in regulating phytohormone signalling and promoting growth #Symbioisis #Phytohormone

Our @LauraRehneke, Silke Lehmann, @Interactome, @PSchaeferLab recent paper on symbiont effectors has been selected by our @NatureComms handling Editor to feature as an Editors' Highlight article, what an honour!

[10] We conclude that SIECs serve as excellent tools for understanding beneficial plant processes. Just as pathogen effectors have been vital in decoding the plant immune system, we propose mutualist effectors will be important for understanding the complexities of symbiosis
