Watch this excellent introduction to @biology.ox.ac.uk It captures exactly what we're about: Working together to understand how life works and overcome global challenges: www.youtube.com/watch?v=dXjU...
It's finally out! With this new paper, Salma and Monica show that hypoxia-regulated ERFVIIs are not immediately destabilised during reoxygenation: they instead persist in the nucleus to control oxidative stress genes. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
I’m sharing a shot of the brilliant world-city I inhabit, and its people, on as many days of 2026 as possible.

Our study led by the extraordinary multitasking Daai Zhang shows here (tinyurl.com/3uhbkh54) that an additional O2 sensing mechanism based on histone methylation helps roots to prepare for potentially lethal hypoxic stress (such as in waterlogging)
