Happy to be part of this collaborative work from the Zuccaro lab 🌱 Prion-like fungal PEPSI effectors target plastids and modulate host metabolism during root symbiosis, including the PEPSI6–DXR interaction. PEPSI6 also connects to phytocytokine biology through possible CAP/CAPE-like processing.

1/ Happy to share our latest work, now on bioRxiv! 🌱🍄 We explore how Serendipita indica effectors target root plastids and modulate plastidial metabolism through prion-like domains. bioRxiv: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... #plastids #plantmicrobe #chloroplasts #plants

Grateful for the opportunity to have pitched at #BioVaria 2026 as part of the Go-Bio early-stage program. It was a great experience building new connections, and opening the door to future opportunities to develop therapies for Huntington’s disease Thanks to the organizers @biovaria.bsky.social

My former colleague Patricia Zecua, me and the Zuccaro group published a new story about how autophagy restricts cell death and regulates root colonization by beneficial fungi: academic.oup.com/plphys/advan...

Autophagy restricts symbiosis-associated cell death and regulates colonization by Serendipita indica in Arabidopsis
Autophagy acts as a pro-survival mechanism in plant roots during beneficial fungal colonization by restricting fungal proliferation and immunometabolic cel

I had the pleasure of joining the Branch Out! Career Day 2025 as a panelist at the Max Planck Institute for Plant Breeding Research in Cologne. I shared my journey building a dual career — as a science communicator and founder. And yes — I wore my own Parafilm T-shirt design 😆

We wrote this short review paper highlighting our current understanding of some biogenic retrograde signals focusing on those derived from cis-carotenoids. Deciphering #plastid #retrogradesignals and their roles in plant development www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Hey all! We have been awarded a Spanish national grant to keep researching. Best of all is we have a full PhD contract assigned. We are looking for candidates interested in molecular biology and evolution of (plant) transcription factors, please spread the word!! Check our web for more information.

I'm fascinated by the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana! 🌱 I created these illustrations as a tribute to this tiny but mighty organism that has taught us so much about plant biology

If you have ever worked in a lab, you are likely familiar with Parafilm. It is one of the most popular lab products without any marketing campaign to position it. This watercolor is a tribute to Parafilm. I ❤️ Parafilm
