Dorota Kawa
Assistant Professor @UU_Plants | roots, monocots, stress resilience, magic microbes
- PhD position open in my team @uuplants.bsky.social ! Join us to investigate how sorghum roots interact with recently discovered Suberin-Inducing Microbes! More details: www.uu.nl/en/organisat... Please share!
- Delighted to be awarded NWO VIDI grant! We will study how microbes shape root cells to enhance plant stress resilience - so exciting!!!! www.nwo.nl/en/news/149-... Fantastic to see several plant projects granted🌽🌱
- We are hiring a technician for our BarrierFates consortium! www.uu.nl/en/organisat...
- Cortex is fantastic and can form so many diverse modifications! We've been lately thinking a lot about cortex in Poaceae and you can now read it about it! link.springer.com/article/10.1...
- Reposted by Dorota KawaIt's alive! Our work combining experiments and computational models to show that "Root stem cell homeostasis in Arabidopsis involves cell-type specific transcription factor complexes"! Amazing collaboration with Vivien Strotmann and @yvonnestahl.bsky.social! 🌱🌱 www.embopress.org/doi/full/10....
- Reposted by Dorota KawaThese webinars are meant to get you thinking and discussing too! We clearly have no fully baked answers to what is a cell type. So we invite your ideas, and you can post them here: padlet.com/nolan84/what...
- A little balloon came our way☺️ It will help us to test the role of Suberin-Inducing Microbes in enhancing crop stress resilience. www.nwo.nl/en/news/gran...
- Reposted by Dorota KawaVicia lunata is a rare wildflower that grows on just a few mountain slopes in Cyprus and Turkey. Its flowers are so bright they look as though someone coloured them in with a highlighter pen.
- Over the moon with our BarrierFates consortium funded. Roots, barriers, maize, stresses -it's going to be awesome!!!
- Super excited to share the news that our BarrierFates consortium got 3M€ funding from NWO XL to study maize root barrier cell types! 🌽🔬 Delighted to embark on this journey with @dorotakawa.bsky.social , @hannahschneider.bsky.social , Victoria Mironova and Jian Xu! www.nwo.nl/en/news/64-m...
