de Folter lab on the cover of @Dev_journal, from our recent work on NTT, STK and their roles during fruit development.
Our first issue of 2019 is now complete! Cover shows false-coloured SEM of a mutant Arabidopsis fruit, from the article by Humberto Herrera-Ubaldo, Stefan de Folter & colleagues dev.biologists.org/content/146/1.…
Very proud of former lab member, Paco Falcon, who was a MsC student in the Biología Integrativa program
The axolotl has been studied extensively, hoping to inspire advances in regenerative medicine go.nature.com/3SLbND0
Our latest paper is out in The Plant Cell! 🚀 @ThePlantCell We identified BGH2, a suppressor of GLK transcription factors, as a key regulator of plastid homeostasis and light adaptation. Huge thanks to everyone who supported and contributed to this work! doi.org/10.1093/plcell…
🚨 Don’t miss out! Last weeks left to register for the Plant Computational Biology Workshop 2025, sponsored by @qpb_journal 🌱 📆Deadline 31 July - slcu.cam.ac.uk/computational-… 📕Submit a paper for a special Computational Morphodynamics @qpb_journal issue - cambridge.org/core/journals/…
