@KNiitepold THX! felt fun to try these new features. But you are right, it's way off the topic.

Excited to share our new study exploring how Arabidopsis thaliana adapts to temperature shifts!  Northern vs. southern Swedish accessions show distinct flowering responses linked to epigenetic differences in FLC. #EvoDevo #Epigenetics #PlantBiology

Congrats to our team and collaborators @JIANQUANLIU. Nature Communications featured our recent paper developing Arabidopsis thaliana graph pangenome and revealing the role of extensive SV in local adaptation. https://t.co/sWql5KSUub

@HighlanderLab @GregorGorjanc Congratulations!

[Yanjun Zan @yanjunzan]

it involves a surprisingly large number of loci whose effects are a dynamic property of the environment. This releases a massive amount of cryptic genetic variation and exposes a new genetic architecture for selection to act on.

our latest ms on the genetic basis of rapid response to environmental change. https://t.co/ElVYtP7BIk .

We now have a complete chromosome-level genome assembly for this allotetraploid and a Genbank scale characterisation on the genetic and phenotypic diversity, as well as a G-P map for 39 morphological, metabolic and disease-resistance traits

Our latest work pushing Nicotiana tabacum as a new model in plant genetics and synthetic biology research is out on bioRxiv. https://t.co/icNODhYmtd

Do any of my fellow PI's have a lab ritual to celebrate a paper being accepted? I want to start a fun #Ferrislab tradition...

I've been a Dean for a year now. What have I learned?

A little thread with some half formed thoughts. 1/n

Making a heatmap is an essential skill for a bioinformatician.
But you probably do not understand heatmap. 7 reading resources to understand heatmap!👇🧵

It's been 10 years since I got my PhD. So I few scattered reflections on things I've come to realise over the years, which I hope might be useful to others starting out...

If you’re considering an academic career, here’s how it works: #AcademicTwitter #AcademicChatter

Through a highly competitive process you might be lucky enough to be accepted into a #PhD program where you earn something similar to the minimum wage.

Massive news: eLife to abolish accept/reject decisions: papers will just be “peer reviewed”. Others can argue about this, but lots of interesting consequences. 1/9 https://t.co/FedRxI62iC

[Yanjun Zan @yanjunzan]

@cshperspectives Would this be a important part of future scientific publication ? What about the evaluation system we have today on researchers?

[Ivona Kafedjiska @kafedjiska]

Do you struggle with writing down your scientific work? Here are some tips from me that have helped me write whole chapters in only a weekend and my master thesis in a week! 😅

An amazing collaboration with Dr Minliang Jin and Professor Jianbin Yan from Huazhong Agriculture University.

[Yanjun Zan @yanjunzan]

Want to know more about genetics of phenotype plasticity , here is our latest work on bio-rxiv (https://t.co/yfySJ4DwhF) revealing genetic regulation of complex trait mean and plasticity, and its role in forecasting complex trait under future climate .
