🚀Exciting news! I'm thrilled to share my first preprint as a post-doc at @slcuplants. We used snRNA-seq to capture, for the first time, the transcriptome of dissected wild-type shoot apical meristems (SAM) in Arabidopsis thaliana at the single-cell level. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

🚨 NEW: The Chancellor told teachers and nurses they couldn’t have a pay rise that might stoke inflation. But what kind of pay rise did landlord Jeremy Hunt award himself? We found out.

@acambridgediary It's a me!

It's been exactly two years since The Flying Pig was forced to close. Two years since the lease to Justine and Matt Hatfield was terminated and the family evicted. Two years since Pace Ltd launched their appallingly cynical 'Save the Flying Pig' campaign whose purpose was nothing of the sort. Two years during which The Flying Pig could have continued serving the community as a pub and vibrant music venue. Two years.

Stiffness transitions in new walls post-cell division differ between Marchantia polymorpha gemmae and Arabidopsis thaliana leaves pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn… A nice within-@SLCUplants collab led by @alebonfanti_ab & @RobinsonSci w/ @AlexWGuyon @Phil_Carella from our team.

Here first author @alebonfanti_ab combined AFM and timelapse microscopy to show that new cell walls in Marchantia become stiffer than those of the parental cell. This correlated with the growth of individual walls and can influence the shape of the cells.

In 2020 the Electoral Commission raised concerns about what it called the "misleading campaign technique" of designing political leaflets to look like local newspapers. But here come the latest Conservative party propaganda papers! See the new Eye, out now.

@tokyojojo I’m so sorry Jo, he brought me joy every time we met. I’ve got pics of him as a pup if you’d like them xxx

He's gone.
