Curious scientist leading a research team mainly working on organelle biology and biotechnology: we study -and often “torture”- chloroplasts to understand how they do their magic ;)

At the @gmivienna.bsky.social with Junior Group Leader Dr. Yan Ma, who is going pioneering work on molecular mechanisms of gall formation (using the “Swede” midge and Arabidopsis). Swede=rutabaga. Yan is one of the few studying flies that attack above ground Arabdidopsis, so we are kindred spirits!
It's out! A tour-de-force in plant-virus interactions by @thevirusmc.bsky.social @plantophagy.bsky.social and many others @gmivienna.bsky.social @mpi-mp-potsdam.bsky.social. It turns out autophagy prevents virus-induced cell death, allowing plants to tolerate viral infection! A must-read 🌱
Excited to share that I will start my lab this summer as an ECL Unit Leader at RIKEN CSRS!
We will study perception by cell-surface receptors across diverse plant species.
I’ll be recruiting soon, so please reach out if you’re interested!
Delighted to share our article on the functional expansion of OAS2 via alt. splicing.
