Excited to share our latest piece in Trends in Plant Science! 🌱🔬 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
We highlight how single-cell laser ablation reveals plant development, wound responses, and root defenses.

Mechanical forces & cell shape guide how plant stomata form🥬👄
@leoserra.bsky.social & Euan Smithers from @robinsonsci.bsky.social's team uncover how the interplay between cell shape & mechanical stress influences the orientation of stomata

Latest preprint from our lab: We've studied the development and functional genomics of cannabis glandular trichomes using single cell multiomics (simultaneous gene expression and chromatin status profiling).
We're happy to announce our new preprint! 🐸 easymode: general pretrained networks for cellular cryo-ET. Segment ~20 cellular features – ribosomes, microtubules, mitochondria, nuclei & more – with zero model training. 🔗 doi.org/10.64898/202... 🧵👇
