Plant Molecular Biology (PMB) Track
Faculty Research Interests
To contribute effective solutions to global climate change, food shortages, rapid loss of biodiversity and new and evolving diseases that are threatening both the health of the planet as well as human health and well-being, graduate students in the PMB Track can study relevant topics in a wide range of research areas as listed below. In addition, graduate students are welcome to develop interdisciplinary projects combining several approaches and fields.
