🌱 When a root cell undergoes symmetric division, are the resulting daughter cells identical? Using live-cell imaging and scRNA seq we discovered a new cell state with uneven BR activity. @TNPlantBio @NemanjaVukas @CheweiHsu16 Read our full paper in Cell doi.org/10.1016/j.cell.2025.…

My postdoctoral work is published online today! Thanks to Dr. Lucia Strader(@LabStrader) for the excellent mentorship. Big thanks to all my colleagues who supported my work. Thanks to Dr. Philip Benfey and Dr. Guy Wachsman for all the suggestions to improvise the manuscript.

What regulates plant de novo organogenesis? Led by postdoc Suresh Damodaran, we discover that not all hypocotyl cells are equally competent to create a new root meristem after excision of the primary root.

I’m LOVING this beautiful conference sign I commissioned from the talented @Kerri_Gilbert for ICAR starting the 15th! She even added a shadow on the beach for him 💕
