Since new people keep joining, in this thread I'm reposting some of my favorite starter packs that you can use to build an interesting feed quickly.

If you're following me, probably at least one of these will align with your science interests.

New Article: "ABA-activated low-nanomolar Ca2+–CPK signalling controls root cap cycle plasticity and stress adaptation" rdcu.be/d1kKp

An ultrasensitive biosensor shows how spatiotemporal Ca2+ dynamics modulate the root cap cycle in adaptation to stress through ABA–Ca2+–CPK signalling. #PlantScience

I am excited to share this animation of the budding yeast inner kinetochore. Created for David Barford's lab @mrclmb.bsky.social

This DNA-binding protein complex acts as an anchor for the spindles that pull chromosomes apart during mitosis.

Gymnosperm #seeds can have multiple cotyledons (unlike the one or two typical of angiosperms). Rather than having a fixed number, the number of cotyledons can vary between seeds. Here are some Pinus sylvestris seedlings, their cotyledons making them look like little whisks! 🧪🌲
