Talk Title:
New Insights into Signalling Dynamics Underpinning Local and Systemic Plant Immunity
Dr. Grant’s research explores how plants recognize and respond to microbial threats, highlighting innovative pathways and the role of dynamic signalling in plant resilience. This seminar will be particularly relevant to researchers in plant biology, molecular biology, and agricultural sciences, as well as students seeking to deepen their understanding of plant-pathogen interactions.
Why Attend?
- Frontline Research – Gain access to cutting-edge findings from one of the leading voices in plant immunity research.
- Global Relevance – Understand the implications of plant immune signalling for global food security and sustainable agriculture.
