How does nature generate complex shapes without a designer?
Mobile small RNAs self-organise into a Turing pattern coordinating leaf polarity and shape diversity — from flat laminae to more exotic forms.
One of the winning talks of the 2025 OpenVT Competition.

I’ll be presenting my latest work on self-organizing gene regulatory networks and how they shape leaf morphogenesis in WG/GLIMPRINT Virtual Seminars on Multiscale Modeling.
Grateful to the IMOBio team for the kind invitation.

A grey coloured Arabidopsis leaf epidermis, with black cell walls. Each cells has a colourful blobs - a nuclear localised fluorescent ABA sensor, with warm colours indicating high concentrations, and cooler colours indicating lower concentrations.
The Rowe lab is recruiting a #PlantScience PhD student for 2025! You'll use our new ABACUS FRET biosensors to map the dynamic leaf #AbscisicAcid accumulations at low humidity in Arabidopsis, wheat and rice. #PhDposition

Hi Bluesky!
Just landed and looking forward to connect with scientists, thinkers and anyone curious.
