My research program is focused on the role of isoprenoid compounds in plant growth and development with emphasis on the process of protein prenylation. Plant Growth and Development
Plant Molecular Biology
My major research interest is the regulation of plant growth and development by isoprenoid compounds. Currently, the work in my lab is focused on isoprenylation and post-isoprenylation processing of proteins in Arabidopsis thaliana.
