Bio

My previous roles were focused on engineering nitrogen symbiosis in strawberries, as well as applying genome editing and RNAi-based approaches for trait development in crops.

Here I’m involved in projects exploring signalling peptides and their roles in receptor kinase-mediated pathways that regulate plant immunity.
