We are a transregional collaborative research centre funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG). We address the basic question: What are the genetic underpinnings of plant adaptation to environmental change? https://trr341.uni-koeln.de/https://bsky.app/profile/trr341.bsky.socialhttps://bsky.app/profile/trr341.bsky.social/post/3lzl72myh4k27Our 5th Internal Progress Colloquium is coming to an end! Two days full of scientific interactions. Honoured to have with us Caroline Müller (Bielefeld University) and @apoetsch.bsky.social! Our ECRs have progressed enormously and this makes us so happy!24 Sep 2025 10:09 +0000at://did:plc:4msjefzaljpwt7iwvqo4ovah/app.bsky.feed.post/3lzl72myh4k27https://bsky.app/profile/trr341.bsky.social/post/3lrsp6gyk7s2uTogether with @ceplas.bsky.social we are planing a panel discussion in German about the applications of plant research in withstanding climate change at the "Haus der Universität" in Düsseldorf. Students, citizen scientists and all interested people are welcome to attend!17 Jun 2025 14:25 +0000at://did:plc:4msjefzaljpwt7iwvqo4ovah/app.bsky.feed.post/3lrsp6gyk7s2uhttps://bsky.app/profile/trr341.bsky.social/post/3lrsob5iibc2uWonderful!
