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 😂

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! 🌽

Finished the Cayuga Trail Ultramarathon 50km/33 miles, 6000 ft. Beautiful course, magnificent waterfalls and brutal inclines. The best way to warm up for the field season. Many thanks to @Margare41291282 for pro tips!!!
