- New In Brief out in The Plant Cell, co-authored with Dr. Travis Lee! We highlight recent work by Katie Long, Ashleigh Lister, and colleagues, who adapt MERFISH–based spatial transcriptomics to the anatomically complex wheat spike. 🧵👇
- 🌾Although basal spikelets are initiated first, they develop more slowly and often remain rudimentary. By profiling ~200 genes across >50,000 cells and four stages, this study uncovers early apical–basal transcriptional gradients that prepattern spikelet fate. doi.org/10.1093/plce...
- ✨ Excited to share our new In Brief article in The Plant Cell! Co-authored with Fabian and Bruno, our piece highlights work by Almeida-Silva and Van de Peer that uses spatial transcriptomics to uncover how gene and genome duplications shape plant evolution.

- Great day at the London Single Cell & Spatial Discovery Symposium! 🌟 So many inspiring talks and success stories in spatial & single-cell biology — and wonderful discussions with the community. Huge thanks to the 10x team for organizing such a great event! 🙌
- 🌟 Excited to be speaking at the London Single Cell & Spatial Discovery Symposium this Thursday. 🧬 Looking forward to connecting with the single cell and spatial biology community and learning from the amazing 10x-perts.
- Weekend Reading Recommendation #1 📚 ✨ Write No Matter What by Joli Jensen Key takeaway: Writing can be frequent, low-stress, and even enjoyable—a daily practice, not just a deadline scramble. 👉 I’d love to hear: What’s a book that’s shaped how you work, learn, or create?
