Very excited to share that, come January, I will be joining the faculty at @UniofBath as a Lecturer/Assistant Prof! We’ll be studying all things microbiomes, harmful & beneficial host-microbe interactions, and protist diversity & evolution theholtlab.com for updates! 😁

The International Symposium "Evolution of Plant Reproduction" organized by @DFG_ICIPS will take place in Berlin (Germany) from March 25-28, 2025. To register, go to: dfg-icips.org/berlin2025/

I'm delighted to advertise a fully-funded 4 year PhD studentship for UK students of Black heritage @BristolBioSci. Interested in improving yields of an emerging crop while living in a brilliant city? If so please get in touch! @BlackInPlantSci #phdposition findaphd.com/phds/project/fu…

A PhD opportunity (findaphd.com/phds/project/ge…) to come to Bath and work with myself @WillsProf and @glpcjd on all things plants, from morphology to genomes 🌿🌲🌱

We are looking for a PhD candidate interested in the evolution and development of plants who can start in October 2025. Please see the link below for more details and contact information. findaphd.com/phds/project/ex…

Optimising global plant conservation strategies by finding the known unknowns. The valuable work of my colleagues @KewScience hits the news again.

Oxford's (and everyones) favourite weed! A huge effort from Bruno and all involved to explore post hybridisation genome evolution and Asteraceae

we sequenced the Oxford ragwort, a homoploid hybrid plant species 🌼🌱💻🧬sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

A six month paid internship is now available @KewScience @ForestProtectUK mapping elms in Britain careers.kew.org/vacancy/scie…

Understanding evolution is relevant to us in our everyday lives. In our latest podcast, listen to our very own @sometimesferns chat about his work on evolution, diversity & plant genomics with a view to us developing crops that are better able to withstand climate change.

How did bryophytes and vascular plants get so different? I'm looking for a new team member to join my lab for 3 years and find out! The project will involve developmental genetics in Physcomitrium and Selaginella, more info here: linkedin.com/in/jill-harriso…

We're looking for two postdocs to work in Nottingham on an interdisciplinary collaborative project with the @etienne_farcot and @RabhoRoot labs. One experimental biologist jobs.nottingham.ac.uk/Vacanc… and one mathematician jobs.nottingham.ac.uk/Vacanc…

We'd welcome applications to work on bacterial genomics and evolution at @MilnerCentre @UniofBath, do get in touch with any of us (on Twitter: @EpicFeil_ , @LaurenCowley4 , @apreston243 , @stephlo_lo )

Really nice commentary here about evo-devo in the stomata field.

Fantastic postdoc opportunity to work on a critical question in plant evolution - where do shoots come from? A new collaboration between Jill Harrison @BristolBioSci , @Sandy_Heth and others are finding out. Contact Jill for details! thenode.biologists.com/jobs/…

my first paper of the year (and my first ever single author paper) has been finally published! Do you work on #fossil #plants? Do you feel that your #phylogenies are too uncertain? Don't fear uncertainty, EMBRACE IT! doi.org/10.1002/ajb2.16282
