Identification of DELLA and GID1 genes in Catharanthus roseus and their potential role in regulating vindoline biosynthesis link.springer.com/article/10.100…

Thanks to the persistence & deep literature study by @LaurenFCole @NUBioE1, we explored the regulation of vindoline biosynthesis & photomorphogenesis with the 2 following papers:

Congratulations to Associate Professor Carolyn Lee-Parsons (@CLeeParsons ) and her students Lauren F. Cole-Osborn and Emma Meehan for being published in Plant Direct (Issue 6, Volume 8)! 🌿 You can read their research here: buff.ly/4caOk5U #nucoe #PlantDirect

@danteshepherd Wow - that was quick! The stairwells were like they were when I was a graduate student.... even the fact that there were still people in their offices and in the lab on a friday night at 7:30 PM!

Can you tell where I am based on the mural behind me? ; )

@NobelPrize @kkariko Congratulations Dr. Kariko! Much deserved - thank you for holding on and persevering - the entire world thanks you!

“Ten years ago I was kicked out and forced to retire.” Our new medicine laureate Katalin Karikó (@kkariko) told us how much it means to be awarded the Nobel Prize after a scientific career that has been full of challenges. Ten years ago, Karikó was still doing all her experiments by hand but today she has been awarded the medicine prize for her research on mRNA, which led to the development of COVID-19 vaccines.

My sincere thanks to the Graduate Student Organization and the Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering Dept at Notre Dame for your warm hospitality and engaging conversations. I really enjoyed the visit - what a special place & community 🥰

@nd_cbegso @NU_ChemE @NU_Chemistry @NDCBE Many thanks to the Graduate Student Organization and to the Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering Dept for a wonderful visit! I really enjoyed my visit to Notre Dame - it really felt like a "retreat" in so many ways! What a special place and community!

We loved today’s seminar from our Graduate Student Nominated Speaker @CLeeParsons from @NU_ChemE & @NU_Chemistry today! Thank you for visiting @NDCBE

@TheChEDr @NU_ChemE Thanks Jackie! What a creative idea to have the students submit this as a contest!

@CLeeParsons @NU_ChemE I love this! She did an amazing job. When I taught thermo, I had the students do this as a contest, the "winner" entry was shared with the class. So many creative entries!

Rachel Tam, ChE 2024 @NU_ChemE, created this 1-pg summary for our Biochemical Engineering midterm. I was admiring the artistry, beauty, & compactness of her study sheet. She gave me a copy of this & the one for the final as a parting gift after the final exam! 😄
