I had a blast visiting @BTIscience & meeting their amazing students who participated in the @NSF Research Experience for Undergraduates program! They're very passionate about communicating how they use plant gene editing in their research, so we cooked up this video. Enjoy! 🌱🧬

So happy to host Hannah Fung from the lab of @stanfordstomata she gave an amazing talk on the cell fate of stomata! Thrilled we were able to have such a wonderful student and soon to be PhD!
The next Emerging Scholar is Hannah Fung from @stanfordstomata lab @Stanford, on dynamics of cell fate decisions in plant development!
