Quick stopover in London en route to Germany. Great to catch up with one of my favourite people @OrmanBeata for a pint by the Thames & the latest on wheat, barley & more...

@AlisonRBentley thanks @AlisonRBentley - fantastic evening and hope to see you soon, safe travels!

Excited to be a part of this! https://t.co/oplN3MILlW

From Sonora sunshine to Cambridge springtime. Lovely to see @OrmanBeata @bowden_sarah & @ekte_Toby this morning en route to #monogram22

[Beata Orman-Ligeza @OrmanBeata]

@AlisonRBentley @bowden_sarah @ekte_Toby Lovely to see you all today. Have a great time @AlisonRBentley in the UK and see you soon!

NEW #VACANCY! Are you an enthusiastic and talented Plant Molecular Biologist? Based in Cambridge, we have a fixed-term role available working on a project relating to wheat grain quality. For job description and to apply see: https://t.co/3iIPoi7PHh #NowHiring #JobOpportunity

Plants in the climate controlled @niabgroup Cambridge glasshouse facility have cracked on despite the lockdown! Anytime of the year we can grow anything under glass, from Maize to Potatoes, Beans, Wheat and Ornamentals! #agriculture #horticulture #grower #research #cropscience

This is big! Using microfluidics and genes from 9 different organisms, scientists have created artificial chloroplast that can do more efficient photosynthesis outside plants! This could be engineered into crops or tweaked to produce other metabolites https://t.co/T3uxyR25WE

@StephanieSwarbr @GomollonSara you've got yourself bizarre tomatoes

Excited to tell this story - great team effort, thank you all!

We are unstoppable! #lovescience #homeworking #coronavirus

[Niab @niabgroup]

NIAB crop research staff #homeworking where they can, even on lab work. Here, Kay Trafford's team works on barley grains with unusually large germs = more nutritious but, so far, lower yielding, & its because of one small change in the sequence of a single gene #foodSecurity

[Beata Orman-Ligeza @OrmanBeata]

Excited in Leeds at 3D RNA-seq App workshop in Leeds. Thanks to @GARNetweets @UniversityLeeds @JamesHuttonInst

[Niab @niabgroup]

We don't always use combines! Here's James Powell, a placement student in our Genetics and Breeding team busy hand sickeling Designing Future Wheat plots. For more on the project see: https://t.co/F2SDMOPL2y #FARM24

[Alison Bentley @AlisonRBentley]

An excellent seminar from @porridgepusher at NIAB today. Really exciting to hear about work to realise the value of a range of novel food, fibre & fuel crops

[Sophie Harrington @sa_harrington]

Back from my twitter holiday, and very excited to see our paper up on @biorxivpreprint! This was such a nice collaboration with everyone, and I'm so excited to be sharing our results at @SEBiology Seville 2019 1/3

[Alison Bentley @AlisonRBentley]

Not your usual lab seminar - today Richard Horsnell shared his work on pre-breeding with synthetics with the rest of the NIAB Genetics & Breeding team live from his "office". An excellent opportunity for everyone to have a look at our @UKFutureWheat nurseries!

[Benjamin J Tea @Benjaminjtea]

It's the @NIABTAG staff centenary lunch today with @TinaBarsby_NIAB kicking things off. Tools down and glasses high to celebrate 100 years of crop science! #niab #cropscience #farming #growing #agriculture #horticulture #centenary #100years
