My student, Thea, got the @aspbofficial.bsky.social ASPB SURF for summer 2025 to work with us at @ubcbotany.bsky.social @ubcbotany.bsky.social UBC! She also got NSERC USRA this year! Thanks to Olivia @ohazel.bsky.social for mentoring Thea. Congratulations 🍀🔬😊 What an achievement!

🧪🌱Preprint: "Regulation of vacuole fusion, a pivotal mechanism mitigating salt-induced inhibition of root cell growth" It shows that low-salt stress inhibits vacuole fusion, but may serve as a protective mechanism! 📜Betz et al., 2025 dx.doi.org/10.21203/rs.... #PlantSciences

🔬☘️ Congratulations to Cecilia Rodriguez-Furlan's lab, @adrienheymans.bsky.social, and @srobertgroup.bsky.social for the recent preprint. @ohazel.bsky.social and I are very grateful to contribute to the article from our lab. www.researchsquare.com/article/rs-5...

I am happy to share that I've began my PhD program with @aribidopsis.bsky.social at @ubcbotany.bsky.social ! 😊🌱

(1/5) – I am very excited to share our publication in QPB with @aribidopsis.bsky.social ! Before working with Arif, I thought I knew at least the basics about the plant cell cycle, but shortly I realized that I knew almost nothing. If this sounds relatable at all, then this review is for you!

I have to participate (show off) - introducing my Mimulus mutant seedling #mimuluspropaganda

Plant pareidolia: It’s hard to take liverworts seriously when they look like this 🧪🍀.

Another successful semester of organizing Microscopy Monday! This semester, the heavy lifting was done by Olivia @ohazel.bsky.social for co-organizing each sessions. We are grateful to amazing speakers and cell biologists to contribute to the Microscopy Monday workshop series.

Yesterday was our last Microscopy Monday of the fall semester! We were very thankful and lucky to have @fisherke.bsky.social lead a wonderful session covering considerations for electron microscopy 🔬🦠🩷 #Microscopy_Monday_Howard_University
