Researchers from the Walker lab are looking at how paper birch trees are acclimatizing to changing environments through how they manage a vital plant process called photorespiration. buff.ly/4fE9lbn

Do plants fine-tune their enzymatic pathways to meet precise demands, or do they maintain extra capacity to handle unexpected metabolic shifts? Read about what we found here where we use photorespiration as a case study: nature.com/articles/s41598-0…

New @LongLab research found increased mesophyll conductance in modern soybean plants compared to ancestral plants, increasing photosynthesis w/o losing water. They were published in @PlantCellEnvir. Journal article: doi.org/10.1111/pce.15206 News release: bit.ly/3YHUQNJ

Check out our paper just published online in Nature We used carbonyl sulfide as an innovative photosynthetic tracer to infer a global GPP of 157±8.5 Pg C/yr. We found a more productive tropics than current satellite-based GPP product suggested. nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

.@MSUDOEPlantLab is conducting a search for an Assistant or Associate Professor in the area of the biology or biochemistry of photosynthetic organisms, interpreted broadly. We are looking for excellent researchers/scholars, who will enrich the department. buff.ly/47hpRLh

As I reflect on my PhD journey, I have a few favorite memories from my time as a graduate student that I wanted to share!

I was selected as a Future Academic Scholar of Teaching (FAST) fellow for the 23-24 year. During this year, I developed a teaching-as-research project focused on improving quantitative reasoning (both ability and confidence) in upper-level plant physiology students.

Lastly, I am incredibly thankful for the friendships I’ve made along the way. Whether we were all in the lab at the whiteboard, going out for celebratory ice cream cones at the Dairy Store, or tailgating before a Spartans game, it’s been amazing to be a part of this community.

Excited to announce that I successfully defended my dissertation this afternoon and have graduated with my PhD in Plant Biology / Molecular Plant Sciences from MSU!

I am in love with this! Such a great tool for model-based teaching of photosynthesis

Super excited to share my first, first author paper of my PhD! It is a push for the community to invest in PTM discovery and characterization as much as a review on PTMs driving cell fate decisions during ER stress in A. thaliana! Hope you enjoy! portlandpress.com/biochemsoc…
