Excited to share that I’ve been awarded an @snsf.ch Ambizione grant to begin my independent research, starting summer 2026 at the Institute of Integrative Biology, ETH Zürich! I will use (epi)genomics to study altitude adaptation in Arabis alpina - stay tuned for more updates & PhD opportunities!

Grateful to share that our study on "The genetic architecture of cell type–specific cis regulation in maize" is now published in @science.org! Huge thank you to all co-authors and the 4 tough, but fair, reviewers who all helped to improve the study 🌽🧬 www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
The genetic architecture of cell type–specific cis regulation in maize
Gene expression and complex phenotypes are determined by the activity of cis-regulatory elements. However, an understanding of how extant genetic variants affect cis regulation remains limited. Here, ...

I’m very happy to share the published version of our paper on the role of MET1 in wheat 🌾 🧬

It’s been really exciting to discover more about DNA methylation in wheat and it’s huge polyploid genome

Partial redundancy buffers deleterious effects of mutating DNA methyltransferase 1-1 (MET1-1) in polyploid wheat
Varying gene dosage through mutating DNA methyltransferase 1-1 (MET1-1 ) in polyploid wheat generates quantitative changes to CG methylation without the le
