Our new paper is out! 1/16 How does an organ rebuild its shape after injury? It's not just about making new cells, but aligning them in the right direction — like bricks shaping a structure. cell.com/current-biolog…

New review out from COPB! “The histone crosstalk code in plants: Deciphering epigenetic complexity” We highlight recent findings on how H3K4me & H3K36me coordinate with other chromatin regulators to control gene expression in 🌱 Free access until Sept 14 authors.elsevier.com/c/1lVEV4tPF3-b…

Our latest! We reveal an atlas of ERECTA receptor kinase interactome/proximitome and identify new regulators of ERECTA dynamics. Excellent collaboration w/ @edward_marcotte Lab @ut_mbs @TexasScience & Takashi Ueda Lab @NIBB_Public 🌱🔬🧪 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Very excited that our work on directional symplastic transport in differentiated root is now published!A developmental switch controls cell-to-cell transport in roots via pectin-linked plasmodesmata changes: Molecular Plant cell.com/molecular-plan…

Great work from Idan's lab! During root tip regeneration, newly forming cells need to stay temporarily isolated from their neighbors. This transient block in intercellular communication is crucial for successful regeneration. cell.com/current-biolog…

Honored to receive a grant from the Whitehall Foundation supporting our work on brain-wide imaging and behavior. Thanks to my amazing lab members—this wouldn't be possible without your hard work! We’re hiring motivated scientists at all levels. Join us!
