I presented at the 20th Joint Meeting of EAPR 'Breeding and Varietal Assessment' and EUCARPIA 'Potatoes' 2025. The conference theme was Potato Breeding in the Era of Pan Genomes and Advanced Genetics.

FYI: New online! The genetic basis of human height
The genetic basis of human height
Nature Reviews Genetics, Published online: 07 April 2025; doi:10.1038/s41576-025-00834-1Genetic factors that influence human height encompass rare monogenic variants as well as common and rare polygenic variants. In this Review, Bicknell et al. summarize our current understanding of the genetic underpinnings of human stature and link these genes to common developmental and cellular pathways that affect skeletal growth.

Great session teaching flower structure today with plenty of samples from the orchid collection at Bangor University's Treborth Botanic Garden for everyone to dissect

Got to look at the properties of my PGR student's mycosynthesised nanoparticles in the NFI labs today.

Sunday botany afternoon at Coed Cilygroeslwyd: forgot my phone so no photos, but saw loads of snowdrops, stinking hellebore, at least five species of fern, more of fungi and lots of one very happy pleurocarp moss.
