I’m very excited to share this work! Understanding plant hypersensitive cell death has been a key challenge. Using time-lapse imaging, we captured the full process: from calcium influx to organelle breakdown and cell collapse. @YiFeng_eYFP @IPMBSinica

Cell-surface receptors play key roles across many biological processes.
In plants, these receptor families have undergone remarkable expansion. Here, we systematically review these receptors in @ThePlantJournal.
Happy to see this out!

Indirect cost supports core lab infrastructure- electricity, heat, water for research, lab safety (biohazard, chemical hazard, etc), facilities and admins. This decision is suicidal for Americans to stay as a leader in science and medical innovation.

NIH@NIH
Last year, $9B of the $35B that the National Institutes of Health (NIH) granted for research was used for administrative overhead, what is known as “indirect costs.” Today, NIH lowered the maximum indirect cost rate research institutions can charge the government to 15%, above what many major foundations allow and much lower than the 60%+ that some institutions charge the government today. This change will save more than $4B a year effective immediately.
