MAIN RESEARCH INTERESTS

Arabidopsis developmental genetics and cell biology:

(a) The coordination of cell division and cell expansion during embryogenesis (further details)

• investigation of the mechanism(s) by which cells communicate locally to compensate for perturbations in cell division, including the involvement of physical and hormonal signals

• the identification of novel genes required for compensatory responses between cell division and cell expansion

(b) The role of cell division and cell expansion during leaf organogenesis (further details)

(c) Cell cycle dynamics in the specification of cell fate during stomatal patterning (further details)

(d) Confocal imaging and three-dimensional reconstruction of plant meristems (further details)
