Our paper was accepted for publication in @PlantPhys and is available online! In collaboration with @wjnawrocki, @PhytoFreshLab, and @KleifeldO, we show that a high-light tolerant alga utilize NPQ-independent mechanisms for photoprotection. doi.org/10.1093/plphys… @AbioticStress

@ThePlantCell The highlighted paper: doi.org/10.1093/plcell…

You're welcome to read my latest In Brief article, where I highlight the fantastic work of Dupuis and Ojeda et al., recently published in @ThePlantCell. doi.org/10.1093/plcell…

My lab was totally destroyed tonight by an Iranian missile. Nobody was hurt. Flies, plasmids, cells, equipment - all gone. Heart breaking. If during the course of the past 16 years, you have received something from my lab - please keep them safe.

Our large-scale biology article is out in @ThePlantCell! Dig into these rich datasets to see how light-induced stress not only impacts what algae do during the day, but also how it shapes their physiology and gene expression at night. doi.org/10.1093/plcell…

Photosynthesis enthusiasts: Check out our work on how purple bacteria maintain efficient solar energy conversion, even under low light, published in @Chem_CP 🥳 Paper: t.ly/nHqPI Great joint effort with Dr. Dihao Wang, mentored by the LH juggernaut @gabriela_ssc!

Very interesting paper shows that tethering FNR to photosystem I enhances photosynthetic Cyclic Electron Transport, rather than Linear Electron Transport as previously suggested. Look out for my In Brief article highlighting this work, which will be available online soon!

The Merchant lab's latest work on polycistronic expression in green algae is published in PNAS! Come find out how we uncovered the mechanism driving multiple ORF translation and its potential for synthetic biology! Congrats to @MarcoADuenas8 and team! pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

Our new review in Current Opinion in Plant Biology, written with @petroutsoslab , @algalccm , and @YonghuaLiBeisson, is out! We discuss how light and CO₂ regulate carbon storage in microalgae and influence their metabolism and energy homeostasis. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Please share: We're hiring up to FIVE Postdocs or PhD students for a number of #plantsci #proteomics #genomics projects between my lab and that of Hervé Vanderschuren at @KU_Leuven & @UniversiteLiege! Come join us in the land of 🍫 & 🍻 for some exciting science!
