We’re excited to share our new preprint on wheat spike development! We used spatial transcriptomics and scRNA-seq to take a closer look at the different cell types and expression domains during key developmental stages of the wheat spike. Check it out here:

Today, Director @raphmercier.bsky.social officially announced the new name of the main lecture hall at the MPIPZ Cologne:
"Jeff Schell Lecture Hall"
