I'm really looking forward to this event today and excited about working with such inspirational #WomenInStem

[Royal Society of Edinburgh @RoyalSocEd]

👩‍🔬On 25 May, we're celebrating women in science at the Falkirk Science Festival! 🧪

Chaired by @sengarella1, join us at @HelixFalkirk
to hear from some of the amazing women scientists pictured in our Women in Science in Scotland exhibition.

Good luck over the coming weeks to the young people sitting their exams and remember, there's #NoWrongPath

I am so touched and very privileged to work with so many inspiring women. Thank you

[University of Dundee @dundeeuni]

We're celebrating #InternationalWomensDay by asking colleagues and students which UoD woman inspires them, and why.

Who is your inspirational woman? Shout them out by replying to this tweet! 😍

[Dr Senga Robertson-Albertyn FRSA @sengarella1]

@UoDLifeSciences @bacteriacities Thank you so much Amy, it's such a privilege to work with so many inspiring women, including yourself

[UoD Life Sciences @UoDLifeSciences]

On #WorldSoilDay we congratulate Dr Davide Bullgarelli @bulgarelli_d who has been named recipient of the @AMIposts Dorothy Jones Prize in recognition for gaining insights into the potential contribution of soil microbes to sustainable crop production.

Looking for the “human footprint” on the microbiome during barley domestication. @TeamDB_Lab @bulgarelli_d has found that ~5% of microbiome variance can be attributed to level of domestication

@malcolmacaulay @DaffDNA @nanopore @BosJorunn @bulgarelli_d @UoDLifeSciences @JamesHuttonInst @JocoxSTEM @BeaulieuBio @DundeeBotanics This looks fab!

[Malcolm Macaulay @malcolmacaulay]

All set up for @DaffDNA @nanopore flow cell loading workshop this afternoon! #STEM

[Dr Senga Robertson-Albertyn FRSA @sengarella1]

A very well deserved shortlist in very good company. Well done boss!

[UoD Life Sciences @UoDLifeSciences]

Congrats to Dr Davide Bulgarelli @bulgarelli_d @TeamDB_Lab for making the shortlist! Awarded for making a significant contribution to our understanding of terrestrial life, rhizospheres and soil microbiomes, or to the preservation of our global ecosystem.

[Phytobiomes @PhytoBiomes]

Check out this article from @TeamDB_Lab and collaborators.
Under nitrogen conditions limiting plant growth, the 🌱plant exerts a genetic control on the taxonomic and functional composition of the barley rhizosphere 🦠microbiota.

[Dr Senga Robertson-Albertyn FRSA @sengarella1]

Absolutely over the moon to share our latest (collaborative) work exploring the taxonomic and functional impact of (lack of) nitrogen on the barley microbiota 🌱🦠

[CarmenMaríaEscudero @CarmenEscudero]

My colleague @sengarella1 presenting at the Division of Plant Sciences seminar today how #nitrogen fertilization limits the #barley genetic control over its rhizosphere microbiota @TeamDB_Lab

[Dr Senga Robertson-Albertyn FRSA @sengarella1]

What a fantastic day at Hospitalfield beer and berries event with @CarmenEscudero. We loved the combination of art, nature, science and local produce…and of course having fun with activities about our #PlantMicrobiome research at @UoDLifeSciences

[CarmenMaríaEscudero @CarmenEscudero]

Enjoying Hospitalfield art festival! Little scientists discovering the #soil and #rhizosphere microbes diversity, #soilsafari with @sengarella1 @dundeeuni #art&soil

[Dr Senga Robertson-Albertyn FRSA @sengarella1]

Well done @carmen! I’ve seen first hand the magnitude of work that went into this collaborative work. I feel a @TeamDB_Lab celebration coming soon! 🎉 . #WomenInStem #Rhizosphere

[CarmenMaríaEscudero @CarmenEscudero]

Delighted to see out today our work on the identification of the barley genetic determinants shaping the #rhizosphere #microbiota composition. QTLmapping, root RNA-seq and the barley pangenome @dundeeuni,@UoDLifeSciences, @TeamDB_Lab, @MicrobiomDigest, https://t.co/FL5yzJ2LdA

[Dr Senga Robertson-Albertyn FRSA @sengarella1]

@RadioX @ChrisMoyles @GlobalPlayer Just switched off given the continued piss taking of the Scottish accent. 😡

[Dr Senga Robertson-Albertyn FRSA @sengarella1]

@abarakate1 @dundeeuni Thank you :)

[Dr Senga Robertson-Albertyn FRSA @sengarella1]

Eeep! Exciting!

Booking my #PhD #graduation gown today!

I didn’t think I’d get the opportunity to graduate in person so it’s wonderful that @dundeeuni is including us covid graduates and giving us the celebration of hard work that we couldn’t have a few years ago. 👩‍🎓
