What kind of childhood makes a top scientist? Is it enough to have all the right traits (brilliance, grit, etc) or do you need the right family too? And why should we care? A 🧵 on our paper on the Nobel Laureates. A teaser: the income distribution of the laureates' fathers.1/N

Thank you for the invitation! It was an honour to give the Enid MacRobbie Women in Science lecture today and a pleasure to visit the department (and some of the professors) who inspired my interest in plant sciences ☺️🌾🪴🌳🌴
Many thanks to @PhilippaBorrill for her wonderful talk on the power of polyploidy for crop improvement today. We were delighted that she could present this year’s 'Enid MacRobbie Women in Sciences' lecture as part of our weekly seminar series. 🧬🌾🌱

Happy to see a NAC #transcriptionfactor (and such elegant artwork) on a journal cover! Congrats to the authors #cropscience #genetics
Our amazing April cover is inspired by new findings from Li et al., who report that transcription factor OsNAC5 orchestrates OsABI5 to fine-tune cold tolerance in #rice. https://t.co/ZunoxPJsaz
