Summer School on small RNAs
Together with Dirk Grimm, we organised the 2011 HBIGS summer school on “Regulatory RNAs in physiology, development and disease” in Boppard (Germany).
New paper
Our paper describing the use of light-sheet microscopy for the study of plant growth has been published. The major advantages of this technique are the low amount of light illuminating the sample (and therefore light-induced damages) and its very little invasiveness.
Read all about it here.
