Please retweet: The Swiss replacement of the Marie Curie Individual Fellowships (SNF-PF) will have a deadline on 1st of December 2022. If you are a suitable candidate and are interested to work with us at ETH Zurich on carbohydrate metabolism in stomata, get in touch with me!

I spend more time thinking about how plants deal with light, rather than dark, so I really enjoyed today’s Woolhouse Lecture from Alison Smith SEB

We had a lovely lunch on the roof top restaurant at the Ashmolean museum Oxford with our friends and colleagues Francesco Licausi and Lee Sweetlove - Thanks!

Finally, we close the Topical Collection on the regulation of plant carbon metabolism in Frontiers - Plant Science with our Editorial article. A pleasure to have collaborated with the other Guest Editors Diana Santelia and Maria Grazia Annunziata. link 👉frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

Thank You John Christie John Christie for visiting ETH, giving a great seminar about optogenetics and for spending a nice evening together drinking old good red wine

Super excited to share my 1st first-author publication out today in Science Magazine, in which we resurrect billion-year-old enzymes to study the evolution of Rubisco. Let me tell you how a 100 amino acid protein facilitated the rise of oxygenic life. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Attending my first international conference: ICAR 2023 🇯🇵! Join me at CC09 on Tuesday 6/6 at 17:33 for my short talk on stomatal immunity and carbohydrate metabolism. Don't miss my poster (PO-153), on the same day, from 18:00 to 20:00. #ICAR2023 #PlantScience #StomataImmunity

After ICAR2023, we visited Toshinori Kinoshita in Nagoya University. Thanks for the great hospitality and the wonderful scientific discussions!

Thanks Alex Costa for the visit to ETH Zurich and for bright insights into Carlo Pasini PhD project, and some geometry homework 🤣

I can support one application for a SNF-funded Postdoctoral fellowship, deadline 1.12.2023 - to work in my lab at ETH Zurich on carbohydrate metabolism in stomata. Get in touch if you are interested and if you meet the fellowship requirements. snf.ch/en/m1NtWp4nTEL…

The deadline for submitting a poster abstract to join us for the 46th New Phytologist Symposium: Stomata, in Kaifeng, China this October, is fast approaching! Submit by 22 July. npf-events.evessiocloud.com/46NPS/en/page/…
