It was a great pleasure to host with @marhava.bsky.social, an excellent scientists and our former mentors at #KAUST, #BESE @frimllab.bsky.social and Eva Benkova from #IST-Austria. Truly inspiring talks discussions and a wonderful time reconnecting!
Super excited to see Atlas of Botany in print!!!
A pleasure to work with the wonderful team from DK and the @thebotanics.bsky.social
I wrote the Ancient Biomes section covering some of my favourite stories about plant evolution from the last 500 million years! @instmolplantsci.bsky.social
Very proud of my PhD student Julie Ducla, who was awarded Best Presentation at the SPPS PhD Conference 🎉👏
Congratulations Julie — an outstanding achievement and so well deserved!

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.

Single-cell laser ablation uncovers the blueprint of plant development #plantscience

Understanding how positional information within plant tissues shapes developmental programs in real time has long remained a challenge due to technical limitations in precisely accessing and manipulating defined cellular domains within complex tissues. Recent advances in single-cell laser ablation, particularly when combined with confocal microscopy, now allow precise spatiotemporal perturbation of selected cells. This technology has enabled researchers to dissect cellular functions, communication dynamics, and mechanical responses with unprecedented accuracy. Here, we review how laser ablation has emerged as a transformative approach in plant biology, from unraveling the signaling networks governing meristem maintenance and root patterning to modeling wound responses and immune activation.
Did you know that ENPER started in 1997 with just ~30–35 participants? It was founded by David G. Robinson and Jürgen Denecke and has since grown into a key conference for plant cell biology researchers.
