PSRG

We are one of a small number of sites worldwide pushing the frontiers of scientific knowledge in plant membrane biophysics, cellular signalling and development, and genome profiling. We research how plants regulate cell volume and turgor during cell expansion and development, how they sense and respond to environmental signals, and how they encode the epigenetic memory of stress. These are fundamental questions in cell and organismal biology. We use a variety of tools, including systems and synthetic approaches. Many of our findings also have very practical applications. The Plant Science Research Group enjoys a long-standing international reputation. It forms part of the Institute for Molecular, Cell and Systems Biology at University of Glasgow.
