We've got an exciting (funded) opportunity for someone who wants to undertake a PhD in plant sciences -you'll work with the international #LEAF team on an Artemis III deployed instrument to understand how plants and their cell walls respond to lunar gravity. #plantsci #glycotime #space 🚀🌱
It's been fun!! Excellent talk from @carrieaeckert.bsky.social to see us home
Having a fabulous if chilly time at the @keystonesymposia.bsky.social joint meeting on Future of Agriculture and Genetic Engineering for Sustainability. The science & discussions have been fabulous. I finally got to try an engineered tomato from Cathie Martin/Norfolk Healthy Produce - delicious! 🍅🧬

Today is launch day. For my bsky account but also for my brave Wolffia phytonauts who will be experiencing microgravity on a DLR sounding rocket very shortly! The northern lights are putting on a wonderful show at Esrange 🇸🇪 while we wait. #plants4space
