Bastien Dauphin during his presentation at the UK Plant Biomechanics Conference 2025. Thanks Yoselin Benitez Alfonso for the picture :)

And continuing with conference news—postdoc Bastien Dauphin just gave a great talk at the UK Plant Biomechanics Conference 2025 🎤🌿

He’s using chemo-optogenetics to trigger local changes in the plant cell wall. New tools, new insights!
