Apologies - registration still possible until 21 April!
Nice paper!
Still time to register — deadline extended to 17 April!
Join us this summer in Scotland to discuss how we can translate epigenetic insights from model systems into crop plants.
Looking forward to great discussions and new connections!

Congratulations to @caroleduchene.bsky.social and all the authors on this beautiful work exploring the inheritance of endogenous viral insertions in algae. It was a pleasure to contribute to this study and I am sure this is only the beginning of many exciting discoveries! 🌿 @mpi-bio-fml.bsky.social
The New Phytologist Foundation is pleased to support the inaugural UK Plant Epigenetics Network Meeting, 'Plant #Epigenetics: From Model to Crop species', taking place in Dundee, UK on 11-12 June.

Our work on chromatin evolution in brown algae is now published in @natecoevo.nature.com! We show that developmentally complex brown algae evolved without epigenetic silencing pathways long thought universal, underscoring why non-model lineages are important to study. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Our work on chromatin evolution in brown algae is finally out!
This is also my first "co-first author" paper!! I’m excited to share what we found 👇
Nature Microbiology, Published online: 13 May 2026; doi:10.1038/s41564-026-02361-zGiant endogenous viral elements integrated into the multicellular alga Ectocarpus are reactivated by specific temperature cues, driving productive latent viral infections.
We are pleased to announce the launch of the BBSRC-funded UK Plant Epigenetics Network (UK-PEN) with our inaugural meeting (it is free!):
🌱 “Plant Epigenetics: From Model to Crop Species”
📅 11–12 June 2026
University of Dundee (hybrid event)
We look forward to welcoming you!

Chromatin plays a central role in gene regulation, but chromatin systems are only known for a few model species. This study analyses chromatin regulatory landscapes in brown algal lineages to elucidate their structural organization and evolution 🧪 www.nature.com/articles/s41...
