“My research aims at exploring plant responses to environmental factors with a particular focus on the determinants of seed quality. Leading up to now, most of my investigations have been targeted at studying the molecular control of seed dormancy and germination using biochemical techniques, including -omics approaches, especially proteomics and metabolomics. In the framework of various projects and collaborations, I also apply mass spectrometry based approaches, such as GC-MS based metabolite profiling, to detect and quantify metabolites in diverse biological samples including plant tissues, algae and fungi.”
