Deeply saddened by the passing of Meng. Heartbroken to lose a candid, generous friend and colleague. Plant science lost a brilliant mind, but I will remember Meng as a kind soul who inspired those around him. Rest in peace. You are sorely missed. 💔

Plant cells have their own language, & #HHMIInvestigator Keiko Torii has spent 30 yrs decoding it. Her team's new work on the signals guiding stomatal development — & how plants balance that with pathogen defense — could help develop more resilient crops: bit.ly/4hFvOIy

Four billion years ago, Earth was a sterile rock. Today it is teeming with life, from simple microbes to extraordinarily complex societies that span the globe.
How does that happen? I'm writing a book about the answer: Life Unbounded, from Quanta Books.
quantabooks.org/books/life-u…
🚨New book announcement! 🚨Evolutionary biologist William C. Ratcliff’s (@wc_ratcliff) LIFE UNBOUNDED (forthcoming 2029) delivers a sweeping narrative of the emergence of complex life, and how a sterile planet transformed into the rich mosaic of beings on Earth today.

We have a new paper out in Scientific Reports on engineered Gluconobacter oxydans that leaches up to 75% of the Mg out of olivine and enstatite, and along the way it precipitates Mg-oxalate, a mineral that locks up twice the carbon per Mg as magnesite. Rock weathering usually takes millennia; this took 15 days:

It’s hard to believe our summer REU program has already wrapped up!
An exciting summer of research, discovery, fun and new friendships culminated in our annual George and Helen Kohut Symposium, where our summer researchers had the opportunity to showcase the hard work they accomplished over the past 10 weeks.
It was a wonderful day filled with fascinating research, great conversations and plenty of lasting memories. Congratulations to all of our summer researchers—and to everyone who helped make the Symposium and the entire summer a huge success!
We’re so proud of everything this year’s cohort accomplished and can’t wait to see where they go next!
