Successful applicants select a faculty mentor based on scientific interests.
Faculty research interests include genome organization and mapping;
chromatin structure; gene structure and regulation; plant responses to the
environment; organelle genetics and biogenesis; plant growth and
development; plant cell culture, regeneration and transformation; and
plant-microbe interactions. Applicants should have a strong background in
some aspect of the life sciences and serious interest in applying to
