Very excited to share a wonderful collaboration between @LabPurugganan and @zoejolylopez. We used PRO-seq to detect nascent transcription activity and study the cis regulatory landscape in rice genome. Please read if you're a plant genomics researcher!

The Purugganan Lab participated in the 7th International Date Palm Conference at Emirates Palace, in Abu Dhabi.

Tiago Capote @CapoteTiago, postdoctoral associate at our Lab, presented the work: Genomic tools for date palm: towards a modernized crop enhanced by wild-relatives.

[Purugganan Lab @LabPurugganan]

Ana Margarida Ferro, @AnaMargarida science outreach director at our lab, presented a poster entitled The Date Palm Genome Diversity Project at NYU Abu Dhabi.

Congratulations to the participants.

In the Purugganan lab, Sonal is investigating the genetics of salinity tolerance in rice and will further work to understand the role of selection pressures on gene expression changes enabling adaptation.

Welcome Sonal ☺️
