Hosting Yusaku Uga and Takanari Tanabata visiting the lab and Danforth Center!
I'm at the Danforth Plant Science Center in St. Louis. After my seminar presentation, we toured the X-ray microscope. We can see the root cell nondestructively in high resolution. Itโs wonderful. And in the evening we had a wonderful dinner party. Thank you, Chris and Keith. pic.twitter.com/poDpwqI2Mh
