Wow is that THE Dr Yasmine Lam talking about how CRISPR can help accelerate crop improvement at this years Pint of Science!? #Pint24 @YasmineCan
Great talk by @YasmineCan at he @PAGmeeting on gene editing in sorghum and how knocking out a gene can influence the plant architecture.
And thats a wrap! Had to wait an extra 4 months to dress up in the medieval cape and hat, but nonetheless I’m PhDone. The culmination of some of my craziest years on this planet. Thank you to my super supervisory team, and everyone else who’s been apart of this journey. 🎓
Congratulations @YasmineCan to one of the best people I know! You have the brightest career ahead and I am excited for you to one day be my boss 😁
Congratulations to Yasmine Lam on being awarded her PhD at UQ today! So well deserved! A great outcome for QAAFI and for our ARC Discovery team too!
So proud of our amazing graduates! I think we set a new record with 5 PhD graduates and 1 Masters associated with the @HickeyLab! Congrats to @YasmineCan, @Dipika_UQ, @AsadAmeenpak, @yadavseema43, Amy Mackenzie and Maggie Zhang
New technology for capturing epialleles at population scale has wide applications for crop improvement Great talk by @pete_crisp at @asps_ozplants in Hobart
Day 3 at #ASPS2023 and our Post-doc @NipuniT90 presents her work from her PhD on the mechanisms of programmed cell death and stress response. 🍂
PhD candidate Zac Aldiss presenting his work on altering root systems using CRISPR at #ASPS2023. Great work Zac! 🌱
Presented posters at UQ for QAAFI's NextGen Ag Symposium. Pictured: our lab cleaning up awards.
Dr Karen Massel from @QAAFI talks about gene editing for novel trait development in sorghum #aussorgm23
Free conference for ag, soil, plant, tech, food research students! Yes there is free food and beer.
USDA approves shorter GM corn. The Smart Corn System is designed to produce 30% smaller corn with the same yields. The plant is shorter and can tolerate strong winds that damage crops. It also makes it easier for farmers to apply inputs. feedandgrain.com/grain-handling…
Capping off the semester with a little Massel-Godwin-Crisp lab potluck. Times like this are when we wish smell-o-vision was a thing. Absolutely stuffed! 😋 @karenmassel @pete_crisp
Sorghum edits improving seed size, digestibility and canopy architecture in one talk! Getting enough shots on goal (i.e. lots of sorghum transformation capacity) is important. "This sounds brilliant because I won't talk about the 95% that didn't work." - @Godwin_UQ #sorghum2023
Editing the way to resilient high value sorghum. @Godwin_UQ gives a great overview of the gene editing activities @UQ_News on Day 2 of @21CentSorgh2023 #sorghum23
Thank you for everyone for listening on GM and gene editing crop production in Australia. Thank you @pintofscienceAU for giving me this opportunity
