Realizing Increased Photosynthetic Efficiency (RIPE) is an international research project engineering crops to be more productive by improving photosynthesis. We hope to reduce global food insecurity & prepare plants to deal with the changing climate.

@ripeproject.bsky.socialThanks to my co-authors, @ripeproject.bsky.social, @gatesagone.bsky.social and @universityofessex.bsky.social and all colleagues who supported me! (3/3)
Show PostWell done to PhD student Connor Nehls, @ecarmosilva.bsky.social and @doug-orr.bsky.social on new work out in @jxbotany.bsky.social on Rubisco dark inhibition. See the release here by @ripeproject.bsky.social www.linkedin.com/posts/ripepr...
Show PostIncreased Rubisco for better C4 photosynthesis www.pnas.org/doi/abs/10.1... @ripeproject.bsky.social
Show PostField trials (like @ripeproject.bsky.social's awesome work) show pathways that relocate CO2 release to chloroplasts, from mitochondria can perform well 🚜 Our models link this to CO2 diffusion & Rubisco efficiency gains.
Show PostThere’s only one week left to apply for the BiPS Summer Studentship. Like the students from our cohort last year, you will have the opportunity to present at the 2025 BiPS Conference. Head to the link in our website for the list of projects that you could possibly take part in: buff.ly/lDqP68H
