I have attended this summer school many times and was involved in the organizing of the 11th! Highly recommended! Plus, it's in the beautiful city of Utrecht. 😊
We are beyond excited to reveal the full line-up for our Environmental Signaling in Plants summer school 2026!
Registration is now open here eps.sites.uu.nl - we look forward to seeing you in Utrecht on 24th-26th August!

Hydrogen sulfide modulates plant hypoxic responses through the persulfidation of Plant Cysteine Oxidases
Hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) is a gaseous molecule historically regarded as toxic. Nevertheless, increasing evidence has brought to light important physiological roles in both animals and plants. In plants,...

Happy to share that our multi-omic analysis comparing two Arabidopsis accessions is now published 🌿 The first story from our @ukri.org BBSRC sLoLa #plant #proteostasis project. A great collaboration between @rothamsted.bsky.social @richardmott.bsky.social @ucl.ac.uk and Kathryn Lilley at Cambridge.
We have just published a paper in Genome Biology, rdcu.be/eIMLf. We explore the information flow between genome, gene body methylation, transcriptome, translatome and proteome in Arabidopsis. This is part of a BBSRC-funded collaboration with UCL, Rothamsted Research and University of Cambridge.

In our new Science Advances paper, we reveal how: plants repurpose their ER quality control machinery (ERAD) to regulate auxin compartmentalization and thus growth.
