And that's a wrap for YRSPP2026!🌱♥️
Has been an incredible journey, & we are grateful to everyone who helped make this symposium such a success. We now pass the torch to the next committee & wish them all the best in continuing to grow & support the young photobiology community

El @ibt_unam transforma conocimiento en soluciones concretas: estos son solo algunos de los desarrollos del IBt que hoy se aplican en México. Desde la CVTT impulsamos que más innovaciones universitarias recorran ese mismo camino. 🔬💡👇

Such a great experience organising YRSPP26 in Edinburgh with @_AmyNewell @hannah7walters @MarissaValCab @lavendercoco666🌱
Really happy to present my work too and meet so many inspiring photobiologists
Thank you to everyone who attended @YRSPP_2026 and made it such a success

[YRSPP @YRSPP_2026]

As we kick off YRSPP Edinburgh 2026 tomorrow, a huge thank you to our grant supports & sponsors. This wouldn’t be possible without you! 🌱♥️

We’re excited to welcome Ór Ceilidh Band to play live at the YRSPP 2026 social evening! 🎻
Join us for a traditional Scottish ceilidh https://t.co/7XIFmRNmBs

🗓️Registration closes 15 February. Time is running out!⌛️https://t.co/C5mjOm8q72

Using a phyA-nanoLUC reporter in Arabidopsis, we quantify diurnal phyA dynamics and its induction by low red:far-red ratios.

Feel free to contact me if you’d like to discuss the work further!

[Marissa Valdivia-Cabrera @MarissaValCab]

Excited to share our latest work with Phil Prizeman-Green and the Halliday Lab! 🌿✨
We show that phyA is not just a deep-shade sensor but a sensitive detector of natural canopy shade, driving a “canopy adaptation strategy” that supports seedling development.

Rounding off our YRSPP 2026 keynote lineup with Dr. Uriel Urquiza-García! 🌿
His research explores using synthetic biology, optogenetics, and genomics to understand how plants perceive and integrate light, temperature, and circadian signals.🧬🌱☀️
More info & mailing list in bio!

[YRSPP @YRSPP_2026]

Welcoming Dr. Jordi Moreno-Romero as a YRSPP 2026 keynote speaker! 🌿@Moreno_Romero_J
His research explores how epigenetics, particularly polycomb-group proteins shape plant responses to light and environment, paving the way for crop improvement.
