In memory and tribute to Alexandra Page Clark: Student, Research Scientist, Friend

June 2024

A recent article by the Coruzzi lab and colleages in Chile identifing conserved metabolic pathways and convergent biochemical adaptations Atacama Desert plants was selected as the Editors Choice in the June 2024 Issue of the Journal of Experimental Botany

Phylogenetically diverse wild plant species use common biochemical strategies to thrive in the Atacama Desert

Journal of Experimental Botany, Volume 75, Issue 11, 7 June 2024, https://doi.org/10.1093/jxb/erae117

A new study published in Frontiers in Genetics with close collaborators at the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences constructs bipartite networks to more accurately predict causality.

Bipartite networks represent causality better than simple networks: evidence, algorithms, and applications
