After four years of hard work and late nights, I’m incredibly happy to share that yesterday I successfully defended my DPhil in Biology at the University of Oxford - with only minor corrections! 🎉 Feeling excited and ready for the next chapter!

Thrilled to make my first post here 🌱 Right after presenting at #ISPLORE2025JP, where I shared our work on how anatomy & habitat shaped the oxygen-sensing machinery of angiosperms. Please check out our new preprint www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Anatomy and habitat shape the oxygen sensing machinery of angiosperms
Hypoxia sensing via the Cys/Arg branch of the N-degron pathway (Cys-NDP) is central for flooding responses in plants, yet how evolutionary and ecological factors have shaped the core oxygen sensing me...

Coming to you live from #ISPLORE2025JP Fresh preprint from my lab showing that leaves progressively oxygenate and how this is important for their morphogenesis.Thanks to our collaborators from @Fra_LicO2si lab. #plantscience www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Honoured & excited that ‘Breathing Underground’ has been funded by the ERC! This will let me explore one of the most fundamental questions of plant life: how roots breathe underground? @erc.europa.eu

Engineered mutations in the AtPCO4 active site reduce its activity and improve plant submergence resilience! Our new preprint: tinyurl.com/2ydj7qx5, 1 of 2 preprints out this week from the @emilyflashman.bsky.social and @syno2xis.bsky.social labs to link PCO function in plants with flood tolerance!

Engineering reduced activity in the oxygen-sensing Arabidopsis thaliana plant cysteine oxidase 4 enzyme results in improved flood resilience
Plant cysteine oxidases (PCOs) are oxygen-sensing enzymes that play an important role in plant responses to low oxygen (hypoxia). PCO-catalysed dioxygenation of the N-terminal Cys of substrates, inclu...

Can we modulate plant oxygen sensing to enhance flood resilience?🌿🔧 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... This is one of two preprints out this week from the @syno2xis.bsky.social and @emilyflashman.bsky.social labs, two angles on how PCOs shape plant flood resilience. Don’t miss the full story!

Manipulating plant oxygen sensing through NCO substitution reveals trade-offs between growth and flooding tolerance
The oxygen-dependent degradation of Ethylene Response Factors VII (ERFVIIs) through the N-degron pathway is central to regulating the transcriptional responses to hypoxia in vascular plants. Plant Cys...
