ExM is nearing its 10-year anniversary, and made great strides in that time. We expanded cells, brains, flies, fish — even whole mice embryos! One type of organism, however, has until now largely eluded us: plants 🌿 This changes now, with 🍀PlantEx🍀 More details to come!

Happy to attend the Auxentric meeting 2024 with PhD students Lukas Fiedler and Huihuang Chen! You can spot them in the front row!

At Auxentric 2024, our Lab showed updates on cell surface ABP1-TMK signaling and on the nuclear auxin pathway, respectively presented by PhD students Lukas Fielder and Huihuang Chen

Finally, the reviewed preprint on our efforts about the interplay of NGR and AGC kinases is out on eLife - the journal . Please read here: doi.org/10.7554/eLife.…

If you want to know more about the interplay of NGR1 and AGC kinases, have a look at our recent work below!

New publication by Lukas Hörmayer, Friml Lab, Benkova Group, Heisenberg Lab ISTAustria Université de Lausanne GMI Vienna & more gives new insights into how plants heal wounds.

Congratulations Lukas Hörmayer @Frimllab : with the cool story! It is very nice to see how the force probing applications have been applied in this exciting study 🌱🔬⚡️

How plants heal wounds: mechanical forces guide direction of cell division. Study from plant scientists from ISTAustria shows in Developmental Cell (DOI: 10.1016/j.devcel.2024.03.009) x.com/ISTAustria/sta…

With our project CYNIPS, we will explore the role of cyclic nucleotides as second messengers in plants!🌱 Looking forward to sharing with you all the advances!

Welcome to submit your manuscript to our Special Issue "The A to X of auxin in plant development". Still a lot to discover about auxin! Umeå Plant Science Centre (UPSC) @SrobertGroup Wiley Plant Science Petra Marhava More info bit.ly/4aO6uty

Summary of last week at IV Frontiers in Plant Biology workshop CBGP . I really enjoyed the great talks and discussions in the sunny Madrid!

Our new manuscript is out on bioRxiv now. This is the second collaborative work with Han Tang and Friml Lab. A wonderful experience and an unexpected findings. Check it out!

Please save the date for IPGSA 2025 to be held in Ft. Collins, CO from June 29 - July 3, 2025.

Sneak peaks from our recent retreat in České Budějovice. Thanks to Biology Centre CAS Michael Wrzaczek for the warm hospitality and to Caisova Lab Ivan Kulich for joining us as starting group leaders! It was a fantastic brainstorm!

👏👏 Congrats Friml Lab!! ✌️

It's an honour to be awarded the Wittgenstein prize! This will boost our research on auxin signalling and more! Thanks to all the people involved and to the group!
