A message from Maydianne Andrade @WidowWeb
EDI BioSci presents a BIPOC Mentoring Circle on Nov 16 at 10am.
Great opportunity to chat with many biology professionals
Keynote: Prof. Maydianne Andrade @WidowWeb
This event is for self-identifying BIPOC biology undergrads. Please register asap (registration closes Nov 14)
👏👏👏
#UofT is increasing funding for PhD & SJD (doctor of juridical science) students across its three campuses in an effort to alleviate students’ financial stress, advance equity, increase access to doctoral research opportunities & boost research outcomes. utoronto.ca/news/u-t-increas…

New paper🚨: Ever wonder how plants talk to fungi?
When plants are low on phosphate (Pi), they exude #Strigolactones (SLs) in soil to obtain Pi from microbes. We show a broad range of fungi in soil respond to SLs 👇
Is the SL response in fungi conserved?

A few day 3 of #ICAR2024 highlights for me were cool talks by @ry_lister (UWA) on bifurcating cell lineages in roots, and Jia-Wei Wang (CAS), on how to create a perennial Arabidopsis(!), hanging out with the @TAIR_news team and hearing about a new Ath genome, TAIR12!
