Members of the Plant Biology group use experimental, empirical, and theoretical approaches to investigate the genetic controls of development, cellular and biochemical physiology, physiological ecology, evolutionary genomics, and population, community, and ecosystem ecology. Research expertise across biological scales fosters strong collaboration and productive interactions among faculty and students.
Graduate seminar courses explore advanced and emerging topics in plant biology, with an emphasis on experimental design, data interpretation, and scientific communication.
Graduate and undergraduate students interested in these research areas are encouraged to contact the faculty listed below to inquire about mentorship and research opportunities. For additional information, please visit the Graduate Program and Undergraduate Research pages.
