Plant roots are the best! We study diverse and crazy cell type developmental programs at cellular resolution in plant roots. We have a special focus on those that make the plant more resilient in extreme stresses.
- Were you considering applying to the 2026 GRC on Salt and Water Stress? Do you want to give an oral presentation? We are over 60% full, so apply soon! Consideration for oral presentations from submitted abstracts will occur on March 9, 2026. www.grc.org/salt-and-wat... Please re-post!
- Interested in learning about the latest and greatest research in how plants respond to excess salt, too little or too much water? Come to the GRC in Salt and Water Stress in Switzerland. Lots of opportunities for all career levels. www.grc.org/salt-and-wat.... Please repost!
- Reposted by Brady LabVery happy to see our work out examining guard cell transcriptomes over the course of a slowly developing drought. Thanks to @bradylabs.bsky.social and @kaisakajala.bsky.social for the inspiration, way back in Davis in 2013! The data are available in bar.utoronto.ca/eplant & doi.org/10.1093/plce...
- So excited to see this paper out in Cell from the group of my good friend @mydennis.bsky.social It's been so exciting to see this story progress progress. www.cell.com/cell/abstrac...

- At long last, our paper on conservation and divergence of a nitrogen circuit upstream of NLP6/7 &NIR1 in Arabidopsis and tomato is published! It's an exciting combo of whole plant, in vitro, protoplast and systems bio approaches: tinyurl.com/nitrogencirc... @gozdedemirel.bsky.social
- This is my all-time favorite meeting. The best plant developmental biology meeting imo.
- 🚨 The FASEB SRC “Mechanisms of Plant Development” is happening this summer! 🌱 🗓️ August 24–28, 2025 | Southbridge, MA. A short thread [1/3] We have an outstanding roster of confirmed speakers — it's shaping up to be a fantastic meeting. Details ➡️ tinyurl.com/24fsjq6a bsky.app/profile/fase...
- I'm so very excited to see this out - a single cell and spatial transcriptomic analysis in the rice root reveals mechanisms by which roots can respond to different below-ground growth conditions - including compaction. Congratulations to everyone for persisting in difficult times. rdcu.be/ej8Ui
- We have a postdoc position that just opened up in the Brady lab on reprogramming tomato root system architecture in response to changes in nutrient availability - please consider applying! recruit.ucdavis.edu/JPF07095
- Check out this exciting GRC on plant single cell bio! I’ll be speaking about our collaborative @hfspo.bsky.social moss project with @tevavernoux.bsky.social Yoan Coudert, Lidor Shara-Moshe, Richard Smith, Javier Jauregui-Lazo, Laure Mancini and more!
- Want to travel to Portland, Maine and present at the Gordon Research Conference on Single-Cell Approaches in Plant Biology? Short talk submissions are open until April 30, 2025. All other applications for this conference are due July 13th. To apply: bit.ly/ApplyforGRC (submit as a poster abstract)
- Reposted by Brady LabFinally! Im so excited to present to culmination of many years of work from the fantastic Defeng Shen and some great collaborators. For details, I have made a digested thread below, but if you are more interested feel free to reach out (and read the paper of course). www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
- Reposted by Brady LabPlz Repost. We @slcuplants.bsky.social @uniofcam.bsky.social are looking for a postdoc with proven protein biochemistry & cell biology expertise & strong interest in plant processes targeted by Phytophthora effectors. (apply before 2 April) [Image: Alex Guyon] www.jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/50570/
- Reposted by Brady LabHuge thank you to Chancellor May and our wonderful @ucdavis.bsky.social donors for choosing me as a Chancellor’s Fellow! The UC Davis SVM did a lovely write up if you are interested in learning more about me and this award! www.vetmed.ucdavis.edu/news/crystal...
- I've had conversations in the last day with NSF&USDA employees on my research, outreach & permits. I am in awe of their efforts, above&beyond, to enable our research community, to push things through, despite not knowing if they will have a job next week. They are TRUE community providers & heroes.
- Many government employees who enable our research are not forward-facing, and don't necessarily see our support and commitment to them. Consider reaching out to them personally, and letting them know that you support them.

- Does anyone have experience with low-input high-throughput (96 well plate) RNAseq library preparation from plants (bonus points if it is with plant roots...)
- Reposted by Brady LabI'm happy to announce a postdoctoral position is available in my lab. We have lots of great data to analyze with respect to transposons & epigenetics and cool biological questions to answer. Please reskeet and share.
