Our latest systems biology study out now @pnas.org! See how acclimation to dim days impacts fitness in bright days and mine data collected from synchronized cultures to uncover how algae repair severe photodamage & acclimate anew in just 48 h 🌱🌞 @merchant-lab.bsky.social doi.org/10.1073/pnas...

Thrilled to share that my first first-author paper is officially out as a PNAS direct submission! In this study, we uncovered the mechanism diving polycistronic expression in green algae! Come check it out below: www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...
