  • Mothers in Science
    The aim of this book is to illustrate, graphically, that it is perfectly possible to combine a successful and fulfilling career in research science with motherhood, and that there are no rules about how to do this. On each page you will find a timeline showing on one side, the career path of a research group leader in academic science, and on the other side, important events in her family life. Each contributor has also provided a brief text about their research and about how they have combined their career and family commitments. This project was funded by a Rosalind Franklin Award from the Royal Society 1 Foreword It is well known that women are under-represented in careers in These rules are part of a much wider mythology among scientists of science. In academia, considerable attention has been focused on the both genders at the PhD and post-doctoral stages in their careers. paucity of women at lecturer level, and the even more lamentable The myths bubble up from the combination of two aspects of the state of affairs at more senior levels. The academic career path has academic science environment. First, a quick look at the numbers a long apprenticeship. Typically there is an undergraduate degree, immediately shows that there are far fewer lectureship positions followed by a PhD, then some post-doctoral research contracts and than qualified candidates to fill them. Second, the mentors of early research fellowships, and then finally a more stable lectureship or career researchers are academic scientists who have successfully permanent research leader position, with promotion on up the made the transition to lectureships and beyond.

But as a A day in the life prospective student in your shoes I was under barrage from rumours of John’s “elitism”. Seriously look on any online forum Academia and it’s like googling Angelina Jolie and seeing “and Brad Pitt” Living in John's being suggested – always put together but in actual reality separate (certainly now in 2020). Whilst many may have Societies lamented the separation of the two movie stars, I certainly did Equality at John's not for the separation of John’s from its “elitism”, especially as Support a kid who’d grown up like most have in state schools. Applying to John's I find John’s student life progressive and exciting. It’s a community that’s as open and welcoming as it is close knit. Like Angelina, John’s is gorgeous but I hold that this college Will - 1st year Medic stands out above others for reasons beyond that. Its special because of the people who live and define it.

  • Plant Responses to Abiotic Stresses and Rhizobacterial Biostimulants: Metabolomics and Epigenetics Perspectives
    H OH metabolites OH Review Plant Responses to Abiotic Stresses and Rhizobacterial Biostimulants: Metabolomics and Epigenetics Perspectives Motseoa M. Lephatsi 1 , Vanessa Meyer 2 , Lizelle A. Piater 1 , Ian A. Dubery 1 and Fidele Tugizimana 1,3,* 1 Department of Biochemistry, University of Johannesburg, Auckland Park, Johannesburg 2006, South Africa; [email protected] (M.M.L.); [email protected] (L.A.P.); [email protected] (I.A.D.) 2 School of Molecular and Cell Biology, University of the Witwatersrand, Private Bag 3, WITS, Johannesburg 2050, South Africa; [email protected] 3 International Research and Development Division, Omnia Group, Ltd., Johannesburg 2021, South Africa * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +27-011-559-7784 Abstract: In response to abiotic stresses, plants mount comprehensive stress-specific responses which mediate signal transduction cascades, transcription of relevant responsive genes and the accumulation of numerous different stress-specific transcripts and metabolites, as well as coordinated stress-specific biochemical and physiological readjustments. These natural mechanisms employed by plants are however not always sufficient to ensure plant survival under abiotic stress conditions. Biostimulants such as plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) formulation are emerging as novel strategies for improving crop quality, yield and resilience against adverse environmental conditions. However, to successfully formulate these microbial-based biostimulants and design efficient application programs, the understanding of molecular and physiological mechanisms that govern biostimulant-plant interactions is imperatively required. Systems biology approaches, such as Citation: Lephatsi, M.M.; Meyer, V.; metabolomics, can unravel insights on the complex network of plant-PGPR interactions allowing for Piater, L.A.; Dubery, I.A.; Tugizimana, the identification of molecular targets responsible for improved growth and crop quality.

Its aim is to assist in securing the University's long- term success by providing affordable accommodation for employees and for postgraduate students, as well as substantial community facilities, market housing and commercial development for the City as a whole. It will also provide research space, both for the University and for commercial use, that will enable the University to grow its research capabilities and help maintain its world-class position. The project is being built to high environmental standards. It will encourage substantial outside investment in Cambridge and will help the University to recruit the best staff and students from around the world.
