We organised the 3rd international COS symposium with this year a focus on morphogenesis.

Nicolas Mattes successfully defended his Msc thesis. Congratulation Nicolas! Good luck for your PhD at IRI in the Philippines.

We warmly welcome Eva Stauffer and Amaya Vilches-Barro who recently joined the lab.

Together with Steffen Lemke, we organised a symposium on the evolution of Morphogenesis during the Joint Meeting of the German Societies for Cell and Developmental Biology.

Great beginning of the year, two papers published in two months.
Ana’s work on the interplay between RNA quality control and RNA silencing just appeared in Nucleic Acid Research, whereas our joint work with the Bennett and Laplaze lab on lateral root morphogenesis just appeared in PNAS.

Alexis and Mouli went and presented the lab work at the very nice plant Molecular Biology Conference in Dabringhausen.

Alexis traveled to Edinburgh to present the results of the lab on RNA silencing and turnover in Arabidopsis at the Biogenesis and turnover of small RNAs meeting.

We are very happy that our grant to study AGO7 structure/function was accepted.

We are looking for One postdoc and two PhD students. More info here.

Mouli represented the lab in Lausanne during the 8th Tri-National Meeting.
