Ramon y Cajal Fellow at Universidad de León. Iron and other nutrients, rhizobia, legumes, their symbiosis, humans? Yeah, humans too...

Has been a while since my last post, but here we are, with new updates... Since Jan 1st I am Ramón y Cajal fellow at @fisiovegen_ule @unileon (funded by @AgEInves @CienciaGob)

[Isidro Abreu @boronfan]

I will be working on iron (what else!), understanding how microorganisms and plants use it to then improve how much we can get from food. I cannot disclose it yet, but we got funding for this, so stay tuned! I will be hiring a technician and postdoc soon!

Special thanks to #ProfZimmerman, @Drakesmith_Lab and @Fra_LicO2si. You and your teams really made me have a great time in Oxford, connect the iron dots, and dream big!

Preprint alert! 🗞
We used SynBio to "simplify" the plant oxygen sensing pathway and implement it in yeast🍄.
We can now control yeast growth through oxygen!
But most importantly,
Here's a very short recap of what we understood thanks to it:

@vinayshukla_1 Well deserved!!! 🎉🎉🎉 Congratulations my friend!!!

[Vinay Shukla @vinayshukla_1]

Honoured & excited that ‘Breathing Underground’ has been funded by the ERC! This will let me explore one of the most fundamental questions of plant life: how roots breathe underground?

[Oxford Biology @OxfordBiology]

A plant's protective outer barrier is nearly impermeable to gases, making ethylene build up inside while oxygen depletes. When wounded, the dynamics shift 🌱

New research shows this movement of gases through a wound triggers the plant's healing process 👇

How plants sense injury in their barrier tissue, periderm? Painstakingly detailed and amazing work by post doc Hiroyuki Iida shows that wounding is sensed by the diffusion of two gases: ethylene and oxygen. https://t.co/zb5iQ05qcx

@Isabel_MonteG @ERC_Research @ZMBP_Tuebingen @uni_tue Congratulations Isa!! Super proud of you!

[Emily Flashman @emily_flashman]

Interested in a research assistant job in Oxford working on the human oxygen-sensing thiol dioxygenase ADO? Tom Keeley is advertising a post, details here: https://t.co/HM8g8An3mI, closing date 27/8/24. Excellent opportunity to work in an excellent lab on an excellent enzyme!

[Ari Pekka Mähönen 🇫🇮 🇺🇦 @AP_Mahonen]

Excited to share our most recent preprint! @Munan_Lyu, Hiroyuki Iida and co generated a comprehensive transcriptome atlas of the developing root undergoing secondary growth. scRNAseq data was validated with close to 100 fluorescent reporter lines! https://t.co/LJKoGXa9TD

[Barney Geddes @BarneyGeddes]

We are looking for a postdoc to help us study the rules that govern the assembly of the root nodule microbiome on a USDA-funded project. Link below, please rt.

On my way to #ISINIP24
Iron rules!!!

[Isidro Abreu @boronfan]

It is always an amazing conference, with amazing people and vivid and constructive discussions!
