Explore mathematical approaches to plant biology, from genetic information to cellular processes, plant-environment interactions, and climate change models to understand how plants function.
Genetics research at ANU explores phenotype variation, development, epigenetics, and plant-animal interactions, with a strong focus on chromosome evolution and large-scale sequencing in plants and animals.
RSB studies immune responses to pathogens like Shigella and poxviruses, exploring immune system development and its role in fighting infections and cancer. Research supports vaccine creation and cancer therapies.
RSB research focuses on membrane transporters and ion channels, targeting them to treat diseases like type 2 diabetes and cancer. Computational methods explore ion channel functions and transport processes in malaria parasites.
RSB research in molecular genetics covers population genetics and phylogenetics across bacteria, fungi, plants, and animals. We use advanced methods to study biogeographic history, trait evolution, and conservation.
Research on plant responses to environmental changes enhances our understanding of plant evolution, biodiversity, and climate adaptation. We explore how plants acclimate and influence ecosystem functions.
ANU uses molecular genetics to study gene regulation, epigenetics, and gene/protein functions, focusing on plant development, pathogen interactions, and energy biology.
Explore plant-microbe interactions at ANU, from soil and shoot symbioses to pathogens, enhancing growth and productivity in agricultural and natural ecosystems.
