Great to see our collaboration with @ecahoon2 and colleagues from UNL on the front cover of @PlantBiotechJ, highlighting our project making a new sustainable source of astaxanthin. Harnessing the power of plant metabolism to make useful compounds.
Visit by our Crop-to-Innovation Research & Extension Experiences for Undergrads today at the Eastern Nebraska Research, Education & Extension Center @NebENREEC. Learning where our food comes from. @UNL_AgResearch @UNL_PSI @NFHC_NU @UNL_Biochem @UNLFoodScience @unlagrohort

Great "Aloha" party today for Shirley Sato & Tom Clemente. Aloha may mean "good bye" but it also means "love" and "affection". We'll miss you Shirley & Tom! Mahalo! @TEClemente1 @unlagrohort @UNLresearch @UNL_AgResearch @CABBIbio

In a "game changer" for plant bioengineering, CABBI researchers used a robotic lab to make genetically engineered plants - and to boost oil production in plant cells. The advance will accelerate work to develop better bioenergy crops. 🌱

In a great collaboration led by @ecahoon2 we engineered Camelina to make astaxanthin, which is used in aquafeed diets (to give a pink hue). We used genes from the Adonis plant - picture below gives a clue why!

In plant lipid community, we don’t say “hejdå/goodbye/再见”. We say“Vi ses/so long/再会”. Great to have @ecahoon2 @JohnathanNapie1 visit Skåne where oilseed plants are one of the icons inspiring generations of farmers, researchers and innovators.

It was a genuine pleasure and honour to visit Sweden and discuss exciting opportunities with colleagues from SLU and Lund. And great to catch up with old friends too! Events like this make me more sure our science can really help solve global challenges.
