- Reposted by Mateusz MajdaOur new year starts of course with new preprint on brassinosteroid signaling tinyurl.com/nhzcfkxd. We re-analyzed the function of Kelch phosphatases, which were previously characterized as protein tyrosine phosphatases that dephosphorylate the critical pTyr200 in the GSK3 kinase BIN2. (1/6)

- Thrilled to be among the recipients of the SNSF Starting Grants! Congrats to all the incredible researchers funded this year. Can’t wait to keep exploring how plants grow, sense, and respond to mechanical forces. Plants and biophysics rock!🌱⚛️
- ✨ Searching for extraterrestrial life or combating speech disorders: The SNSF is awarding #SNSFStartingGrants to 41 outstanding researchers. They will receive a maximum of CHF 1 million to lead a project with their own #research team at a Swiss university. 🚀 ℹ️ sohub.io/aq26

- Reposted by Mateusz MajdaVery excited to see our @nikogeldner.bsky.social lab x Feng Zhou lab work featured on the cover of Science! (1/5) We reveal how root architecture and nutrient leakage shape spatial patterns of microbial colonization, moving beyond traditional models of uniform exudation.
- Using precise spatial and temporal analysis, researchers in Science provide insight into how bacteria around the root interact both with the plant and with each other. Learn more in this week's issue: scim.ag/3WgNajk

- Reposted by Mateusz Majda🌱 Excited to share that I will start my lab at EPFL, CH this June supported by a @snsf.ch Starting Grant! ramakrishna.ch We are interested in plant mineral nutrition and will deep-dive into the fine-tuned mechanisms employed by plants to adapt to abiotic stresses such as salinity. #newPI #plantsci
- Reposted by Mateusz MajdaCheck out our new preprint where we explore natural variation, leading to the identification of SUBER GENE1, a novel regulator of suberization. Excited to share the first manuscript from a project I conceptualized 10 years ago!
- Delighted to share one piece of my postdoc work in preprint: Through forward genetic screening for suberin deposition in root endodermis, we identified SUBER GENE 1 (SBG1) by GWAS as a novel regulator for suberization by interacting with Type One Protein Phosphatase. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
