Thank you MibiNet & friends @mibinet.bsky.social for a wonderful International Symposium on "Microbial Networking - from organelles to cross-kingdom communities"!!
It was impressive to see the vivid exchange, excellent talks and and poster discussions.

🧵 1/8 Have you ever wondered how information embedded within exons regulates gene expression in plants? 🌱🧬 Check out our latest work, where we explore how exonic enhancers (EEs) shape gene expression in plants! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Very happy to receive the Best Talk Prize at #PPRM2026! Thanks so much to the organizers and everyone who made the meeting such a great experience.

Excited to keep pushing the project forward within the GreenRobust framework! @greenrobust.de @as-in-hohenheim.bsky.social

Closing of the #PPRM2026, thank you to @julien-gronnier.bsky.social @isabelmonte.bsky.social and @kpkinase.bsky.social for a great meeting. Already looking forward to PPRM2027 in Switzerland

Yeah!!! So exciting to see Xu presenting new work on systemins in tomato at #PPRM2026 🌱🔥Our preprint: doi.org/10.64898/202...
This one feels personal. My work in the Schaller lab was on systemin signaling specificity, and now Xu has pushed the story forward by uncovering new systemins in tomato.

That's a wrap on #PPRM2026 ! Had a lot of fun with a community of researchers I really admire and appreciate, and was happy to have the chance to show what we work on. You can read the preprint on some of what I presented here: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Very nice PPRM2026 ( Plant Peptide Receptor Meeting) closes in Freising. Organised by @julien-gronnier.bsky.social , @isabelmonte.bsky.social and @kpkinase.bsky.social

#PPRM2026 starts now! Thanks to @julien-gronnier.bsky.social et al for organizing! I look forward to 3 days with this lovely community!
