Interdisciplinary Life Sciences Training at
University of Missouri


Research in molecular plant-nematode interactions provides exciting opportunities for scientists in training! Studies in plant-nematode interactions are not only uncovering the molecular mechanisms of pathogenesis and host responses to infection but also provide excellent opportunities to address basic questions in plant biology and consequently is adding valuable information to our understanding of plant development, physiology, cellular, and molecular biology. Our system also serves as an exceptional teaching tool to introduce students to the diverse interactions of plants with other organisms and provides unique opportunities for interdisciplinary undergraduate, graduate, and post-doctoral training in the life sciences at the University of Missouri. Interested students and post-docs should visit the following websites and contact me directly for more information on available research opportunities:
