Interested in Graduate Studies?
I am always looking for enthusiastic and talented graduate students interested in plant molecular biology, plant biochemistry, or biochemical ecology. Thesis projects typically focus on one aspect of poplar defense, which is analysed at both the protein and the gene level. The specific project will depend on a student's background and interests. Contact me for more information and projects available.
