Excited to share our work on Programmable Transcriptional Activators (PTAs) for plants! We started by screening a library of activation domains in monocots&dicots, culminating in using these PTAs to activate enhancers in protoplasts. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

Our book has been successfully published! Thanks to @DrAlfredoTorre1, Nilton Lincopan, and all the contributing authors who made this possible! The book represents the most up-to-date collection of data produced by scientists from LatA about pathogenic E coli.
@UniYachayTech
Take a look at my book!

We did not set out to develop new #SynBio tools for plants, but when the existing tools weren't cutting it (or more specifically weren't expressing it), postdoc Armando Casas-Mollano decided we needed improved CRISPRa for plants. [1/2]academic.oup.com/nar/article…

Sres. @midagriperu: sigue avanzando el virus de mancha anillada (PRSV) en los árboles de papaya en Perú. La solución ya existe y es OGM. ¿Van a negarle esa opción a los campesinos productores de papaya peruanos? Hay que levantar esa motatoria cc. @INIAPeru comexperu.org.pe/upload/arti…

Mucho cuidado con lo que le enseñan a sus hijos pequeños. Ayer mi hija de 4 años estaba jugando con una niña en una piscina de bolas de plástico y de repente comenzó a sacar todas las bolas negras de la piscina y ponerlas lado a lado y veia que discutía 1/2 #WomenInScience
