Our 📰🕸️PlantConnectome is out pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40700523/. The online tool is here: plant.connectome.tools. Explore knowledge graphs generated from 71,000 articles, study protein-protein interactions, regulatory networks, organs, stresses and others! #knowledge #graph #llm #plant


Out lab's homepage has been updated with... News! mutwillab.com


Poor Springer Nature is allowing banners with paid commercials... I guess the already exorbitant open access publication costs are not covering the bills? 😵‍💫 #AcademicTwitter

I tend not to post any personal pics here, but do admire my new drysuit!

We are hiring! If you have experience in plant genomics + AI, or promoter engineering + synthetic biology, check out our two open postdoc positions (computational + wetlab): vandepoelelab.be/Jobs please RT #ERC

It has been a while… but an updated, faster & more accurate version of OrthoFinder is now out! Scales to thousands of species on conventional compute resources with higher accuracy than ever before and the same data rich fully phylogenetic outputs 👉biorxiv.org/content/10.110…


🚨 New resource for stress-resilient crops! We profiled 3 leafy greens (cai xin, lettuce, spinach) under 24 hydroponic stress conditions using 276 RNA-seq libraries. 🧬 Conserved GRNs revealed, new stress database! Published in FIPS shorturl.at/ZepMD


Our Plant Chatbot (plantchatbot.connectome.tools) has been updated with a new interface. To make the results more accurate, we now include a large language model guardrail that highlights relevant results obtained from the knowledge graph. Give it a spin!

Very discouraging. Conclusion: keep doing what you have been doing?

Good thing I love my job 😅

NEWS: 🇩🇰 Today, the retirement age in Denmark has been raised to 70 for people born after the end of 1970.

Suprising results!!! Plants lacking RBP47, the well known Stress Granule marker are more resistant to high temperature stress 👀☀️ biorxiv.org/content/10.110… First manuscript from our group 👍 and collaborators 💪
