🎓 Huge congrats to Shivranjani Baruah on a stellar PhD Exit Seminar! Her research sheds light on disease susceptibility and advanced phenotyping in rice–Xanthomonas interactions. Her thesis is the result of years of outstanding work in the Bogdanove Lab at Cornell.

Well done, Jani! 🌟

Wait, that's not rice! Betul Kaya is bringing a whole new perspective to the Boglab, focusing on editing candidate powdery mildew susceptibility genes in grapevine. Here she is about to harvest protoplasts from some grape leaves. #asma #boglab #üvüm
