@DamonLisch I agree. If nothing else, the current situation is a good opportunity to reflect and rethink the old ways that no longer serve us.

Published the second of two back-to-back NAVs with my long-time friend and favorite coauthor, @janlorobil! Note for me: don't sleep while your friend (on the other side of the earth) is still awake, they will sign you up to co-write a NAV 😂

I know it has been a while; my RUBY marchantia did make (bloody) sexual structures👹. I took pictures but forgot to post. (Here is a pic for you @AlexGirFon)

[Thu Tran @Thumaize]

@AlexGirFon Yes, they are. I crossed and they make bloody spores 😊

[Thu Tran @Thumaize]

@iain_searle @YundeZhao No, I didn't

[Thu Tran @Thumaize]

RUBY Marchantia produces the red pigment found in beets. They are so cute that I cannot stop showing them to everybody in our building 😄

newest collaboration with Zhao Lab, led by Xiaomeng Shen, uncovers how KRN5b regulates maize kernel row number through phosphoinositol signaling! I feel so satisfied that our whole-mount immunolocalization protocol worked like a champ with the “oldie-but-goodie ” PIN1 antibody.

Had a great evolution development discussion with @DolanLab at @CSHLplantcourse ! I learned so much about meristem development in Marchantia and explored the fascinating intersection between maize and Marchantia development. Exciting science can keep you up better than coffee! 🌽
