The ILRG is home to many staff with different skills, backgrounds and research interests. Yet we try to create a synergy that allows us to advance our understanding of plants, how their genetics controls adaptability, organ development and internal as well as external communication.
Education is also an important part of our mission. The group is committed to training the next generation of plant scientists.
