Research  
Plant architecture, morphology, and anatomy are key factors in improving crop performance. It is therefore essential to understand the molecular mechanisms that govern them and how they are integrated across multiple scales (molecular, cellular, and organ-level). I use an integrative, multidisciplinary approach to study plant development, with a particular focus on the role of transcription factors that orchestrate the early stages of morphogenesis and their links to organ differentiation. Currently, I am particularly interested in the molecular mechanisms that control leaf shape and ovule initiation.
