I have created a world map for PhD students and postdocs, so that they can easily find #Plant and #GreenLineage #Photobiology labs around the world. You are welcome to add your lab! padlet.com/georomano/3hve… #ISPP #YRSPP #PlantPhotobiology #PlantSci #Plantae

Just a quick reminder that today at 4 PM we (jointly with @Dr_AnnisR) are hosting @MExpositoAlonso for the Cell and Molecular Biology Programme Monday Seminar Series – 2020/21 "Locally-adaptive mutations and their relevance for climate change ecology" @InstMolPlantSci @SBSatEd

Together with @RunsOnAir, Elena Monte, @photoadduct, Gabriela Toledo-Ortiz, @stevehernando and @Moreno_Romero_J we are co-editing a special topic on: "Light-Mediated Regulation of Plant Physiology" More info here: frontiersin.org/research-topic…
