Main research interests

Plant mitochondria

Mitochondria are key metabolic and signaling hubs, that coordinate most of cell functions.

Bioenergetics

Photosynthetic organisms are fueled by energy from light, but this energy must be efficiently harvested, transformed, stored and mobilized.

Signaling during abiotic stress

Plants are amazing creatures, and they have evolved different signaling cascades to sense and react to harsh environmental conditions.
