- I would like to announce that a new Research Topic "Hormone-Induced Plant Stress Adaptation: Brassinosteroids and Beyond" has just been launched in Frontiers in Plant Science and is open for submissions. Please, visit the Research Topic website: www.frontiersin.org/research-top...
- I am so proud 😁to announce that my PhD Student, Karolina Żółkiewicz, has just received financial support from the National Science Centre (NCN) for her PRELUDIUM project. Competition was very tough (as usual), so Congratulations, Karolina! Well done! 👍Thank you, NCN! 🧬🌾
- My new "object of cult". A fabulous journey 📖❤️. Thank you, Prof. Tim Coulson
- I am proud to be a witness of this development from the very beginning 🧬🌾👍
- I have read the hardcopy version📚. Highly recommended👍
- FINAL DAY for this Kindle offer: Just 99p gets you my award-winning 'A (Very) Short History of Life on Earth'. If you've already got it, please repost. If you are doing Dinosaurs 101, it'll do half your assignments, so why not get two? And bring a friend. www.amazon.co.uk/Very-Short-H...
