Dear PPRM community, we are pleased to invite you to the next PPRM meeting, 14-16 September 2026 in Freising, Germany. Registration opening soon!

New OA Article: "Membrane remodelling mediates lipopeptide-induced immunity in Arabidopsis" rdcu.be/feoNF Lipid-driven mechanism for immune activation by a bacterial lipopeptide. Perception at the cell membrane leads to deformation, mechanosensing and early signalling.

Dear PPRM community, we are pleased to invite you to the next PPRM meeting, 14-16 September 2026 in Freising, Germany. Registration opening soon!

New OA Resource: "Motif-based substrate mapping of the receptor-like cytoplasmic kinase BIK1 reveals novel components and regulatory nodes of plant immunity" rdcu.be/e29Ro ...define and use the phosphorylation motif of BIK1 to find novel substrate candidates.

New Article! "Molecular tipping points in plant cell surface H+ homeostasis and signalling" cambridge.org/core/journals/… #OpenAccess

A true “lab” story in full bloom: Jonathan D. G. Jones, Wolf Prize Laureate in Agriculture 2025, and Caroline Dean, Wolf Prize Laureate in Agriculture 2020, are more than just partners in life — they’re also partners in discovery. Jonathan’s pioneering work revealed how plants defend themselves from disease, offering new ways to protect global crops. Caroline uncovered how plants use cold to control flowering time, a breakthrough in understanding how nature adapts to climate and how they “remember” winter. Two brilliant minds, one shared passion for plant science — and now, two Wolf Prizes under one roof. #wolfprize #wolfprizelaureate #agriculture @CarolineDeanLab @jonathandgjones

Our new collaborative paper with @EmmanuelleBayer and her dream team is out: Regulation of plasmodesmata flow by the membrane lipid PI4P and ER/PM tether MCTP cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

Let’s keep working together for equality, recognition, and empowerment of women in science. May we inspire young girls—the future scientists of our society! @WomenScienceDay #WomenInScience #InternationalDayOfWomenAndGirlsInScience #10thFebruary11 un.org/en/observances…

Happy to see that our Cell wall integrity #CWI & #ATG8ylation #preprint found a home @NaturePlants nature.com/articles/s4147… Congrats Jose, Peng, Alessia & everyone involved. Stay tuned for exciting updates on this story…

@MiaoYansong @alvaroffer Congrats Yansong!

🚀 Excited to share our latest study! We engineered synthetic FLS2 receptors to optimize oligomer states, boosting plant defense against pathogens. Using a living plant single-molecule calibration system, we achieved precise control and characterization. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

@WiwiSFC Congratulations Wiwi 🎉🥳🥳

Glad this is finally out! A group effort of multiple generations of Gonen lab alumni! If you want a step by step guide on all the microED variants possible. This is your bus stop! 🎉🎉🎉 Happy to answer any questions also by email or DM :--) #citeas" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">nature.com/articles/s4159…

@Caillaud_MC @CNRSbiologie @ENSdeLyon @ERC_Research @CamilaGoldy @EmmanuelleBayer @CKirchhelle @teva_vernoux @BenoitLandrein @YvonJaillais @YohannBoutte @AndreyLab_fr Félicitations! 🥳

Our latest work as a cover story in @ScienceMagazine ! 🌱 How do plants halt cytokinesis to build plasmodesmata ? Main suspect: the ER . 👀 Stellar work by @PatrickZQLI, with @hortense_moreau, Jules Petit, @felixmendu, @Caillaud_MC, and @BIC_Bordeaux science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

How do plant cells divide while staying connected through hundreds of tiny bridges called #plasmodesmata? ISTA #postdoc Ziqiang Patrick Li and an international team of researchers mechanistically address this fundamental question. Now on the cover of @ScienceMagazine
