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!

Beautiful study by @thevirusmc.bsky.social and @plantophagy.bsky.social. Definitely worth a read 👇
Selective autophagy fine-tunes plant immunity to promote cell survival during viral infection | Science www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
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 🌱
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!
Interferons (IFN) are cytokines that regulate the expression of hundreds of genes during viral infections to generate a broadly antiviral environment in the stimulated cell. Antiviral breadth is provi...
RNA viruses co-opt host endomembranes to form replication complexes, often triggering cellular stress and immune responses. Here, we show that Arabidopsis thaliana activates selective autophagy to res...
Summary: Lipids are increasingly recognized as essential regulators of nuclear homeostasis, membrane dynamics, mechanotransduction and genome stability, opening new frontiers for understanding nuclear...
