🌾Passion-driven early career researcher, working on crop plant resilience to extreme weather events.
Super excited to present my work on cell-type resolution gene expression and co-expression to understand the functional breadth of core regulators 🌽 First talk in Development and Structure session tomorrow morning #Botany2025 Our lab posters are also up! Yuvraj #P145 Minnie #P50
Hey #Botany2025 folks @KenchanmaneLab @UCRCNAS is going to its first conference together 🎉 Yuvraj & Minnie are presenting posters on regulation & cell-type specific gene expression during environment adaptation🌽🧬 Curious about our work? Let’s connect! kenchanmanelab.com
Still recovering from all the sunshine, sunburn (100% my fault—I always underestimate the sun), and some seriously spicy food! 😎🌶️ @KenchanmaneLab hit the beach last weekend for some much-needed fun and wrapped it up with Chettinad cuisine that was almost as fiery as the sun! 🔥
Huge congrats to recent grad @Evan_LaBrant and the whole team—@CailinSmith10, Joslin, and Alondra—on their groundbreaking research into how chloroplasts build and maintain their crucial thylakoid membranes! 🎉 Dive into their full paper here: doi.org/10.1101/2025.0…

Huge congratulations 🎉 @YuvrajChopra100, now a grad student in my lab @KenchanmaneLab, just published his first first-author paper based on his Master’s work with Scott Sattler and Harkamal Walia @unlagrohort Check it out: tinyurl.com/du2vmjan

🎉 First nuclei isolation grand success @KenchanmaneLab! Congratulations to Minnie (Arabidopsis) and @YuvrajChopra100 (maize) for isolating high-quality nuclei on their very first try 💪🌱🧬 Looking forward to many such moments with these two bright and multi-talented students!
2025 Gomez-Pompa lecture by @jrossibarra talking about the human impact on the genetic diversity of 🌽 #StudentOrganized #CortevaSymposium @UCRCNAS
Excited to share this @UCRCNAS video featuring our work! @KenchanmaneLab explores how environmental responses evolve—cell by cell, species by species—using single-cell and epigenomic tools in crops and their wild relatives. 🎥 youtu.be/8Q0K_3d0K6k 🌱 kenchanmanelab.com
Santiago Salas from @scalebio in today’s 'Lunch and Learn' at @UCRCNAS @UCRiverside sharing insights on #SCALE technologies — including QuantumScale scRNA and scMet kits for large-scale #SingleCell sequencing!
A productive day for @KenchanmaneLab! We just submitted three abstracts to #Botany2025 Excited to share our latest work on comparative transcriptomes, epigenomes, and single-cell transcriptomes in environmental stress responses in grasses🌱📢🌱
