So fun to be featured on this week’s @naturepodcast.bsky.social talking about the tree microbiome and could not be more thrilled to be following a story on rubber ducks.

Congrats to @jgewirtzman.bsky.social on his new paper exploring the microbiome of trees now online in Nature (www.nature.com/articles/s41...). Amazing effort to pull all this data together that highlights the distinct microbial communities in the sapwood and heartwood of different species.

📢Interested in plant drought resistance and tree mortality?🌳🌿

👥Join us to explore key physiological mechanisms behind these processes!

👨‍🎓We’re seeking strong candidates to apply for a MSCA #Postdoc Fellowship in our team.

🗓️Deadline: 10 Sept 2025 → t.ly/LmD1P

#PlantScience #Drought #TreeMortality

I have two open postdoc positions in my lab that include opportunities to collaborate with @alecaborsuk.bsky.social and researchers at the Salk Harnessing Plants Initiative.

If you’re interesting root system architecture or photosynthesis modeling see below:

We have a postdoc position that just opened up in the Brady lab on reprogramming tomato root system architecture in response to changes in nutrient availability - please consider applying! recruit.ucdavis.edu/JPF07095

Our new paper describing a novel method for measuring plant cell turgor is now online at PNAS: www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

We demonstrate how nucleating microbubbles inside plant cells and studying their growth and dissolution dynamics allows us to estimate turgor pressure.
