Annnnnd Laurie learns how to actually use twitter... Here is MCB senior, Ella Meyering, from our group explaining her research at UIUC's Undergraduate Research Symposium. Thank you for all your hard work over the last two years, Ella. You are amazing!
Join the @Leonelli_Lab at @UofIllinois! Searching for a postdoctoral researcher with experience in genomics, molecular biology, and biochemistry, along with an eagerness to learn and apply new techniques! Learn more about the position and how to apply: bit.ly/3C2gNKF
A @UofIllinois research team recently received a $1.85 million grant from @ENERGY to study photosynthesis efficiency in sorghum, a grant that is part of an initiative to advance bioenergy technology. Congrats @Leonelli_Lab, @LongLab, & team! Read more: bit.ly/3SBjM3v⚡️
Be part of a revolution in photosynthesis research. Positions (postdoc, graduate, technician) in the Leonelli/Long/Brooks labs @UofIllinois. Physiologists, molecular & comp. biologists needed to improve crop photosynthesis via systems biology. See ad: bit.ly/3ShX2WO
Come work with me! A postdoc position is available in my lab to study gene regulatory networks coordinating photosynthesis and nitrogen use. Position is restricted to American citizens for now due to funding source. Sorry world. Please RT! bit.ly/3lNZeob
