Wonderful day @BangorUni Huge congratulations to Dr. @Alejandra211909 for passing her viva with minor corrections. Thanks to @DrCarrieBrady and @MojganRabiey for examining and George Turner for chairing. Look out for some cool papers in the near future!
Had an awesome time at ISMPMI and the honour to present some of our work! Greatful for the oppurtunity to meet new people, catch up with friends, and see and discuss some great science! If you want to learn more the poster is up online: zenodo.org/records/158817…
Grateful for the chance to share our recent apoplast proximity labelling work at #2025ISMPMI ,great discussions with colleagues from around the world!
🎉 My poster is up and ready to go at #2025ISMPMI. Excited to share our work on SynComs for pathogen suppression in oak trees 🌳🧫 Check out poster P-324 during Session 2 - I'll be presenting on Thu, 13.30-15.15 pm
#ISMPMI2025 Happy to present today my poster about a newly discovered type III effector protein in P. syringae! Please come and visit P-155 today to discuss the story! @michhulin @RobWJackson
I’m thrilled to share that I’ll be joining @ZMBP_Tuebingen as a Junior Group Leader in October 2025! My lab will explore the functional and structural diversity of plant immune receptors. 1/2 #NewPI #PlantImmunity #NLRs #PlantScience #StructuralBiology

Today in @Nature we report a systematic strategy to activate & identify gene sets in plants. We identify 8 new genes from the yew tree's Taxol biosynthetic pathway, enabling us to engineer tobacco with 17- & 20-gene pathways to Taxol precursors baccatin III and dBz-deoxy-Taxol. a…
Mental Health Awareness Week and we had our now traditional @LesMills body combat classes! Thank you everyone that participated and the LES College for organising 👏
I’m thrilled to announce that Prof. Sophien Kamoun (@KamounLab) will be joining us as the keynote speaker for the upcoming #BGRSS2025 at the University of Birmingham! As an organising committee member, I warmly welcome him to Birmingham. #BGRSS2025 #PlantScience #UoB

🔥Super excited to share our latest work out now in @ScienceMagazine science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… This paper describes the discovery of "glycosyrin" a small molecule produced by the bacterial pathogen P. syringae to manipulate glycobiology inside host plants during infection.🧵1/20
How Bacteria Outsmart Plants—Then Flee the Scene 🧵1/6 Ever wonder how bacteria organize during an infection?! Our new research in Nature Microbiology uncovers the sophisticated teamwork of Pseudomonas syringae, a notorious plant pathogen. 🔗 rdcu.be/egczU
Keep an eye on the skies tonight as our iconic clocktower lights up in a spectacular light show for the final time! Old Joe has been lighting up to mark our 125th anniversary this year BUT it's time to call a temporary halt to the lights as peregrine falcon nesting season begins!
