Title:Self-Incompatibility in Papaver: cell-cell interactions that involve a network of signaling events resulting in programmed cell death
Speaker: Prof. Noni Franklin-Tong (University of Birmingham)
Time:10:30-12:00 am March 30th (Wednesday)
Place: Meeting Room 2
Brief introduction of the speaker:
Noni Franklin-Tong received her BSc and PhD in Genetics from the University of Birmingham and most of her career has been based at Birmingham, where she currently holds a Chair in Plant Cell Biology. She has an international reputation and has presented her research in around the world. Noni is currently Secretary General for the International Association of Sexual Plant Reproduction Research (IASPRR). Noni’s pioneering studies have focused on the fundamental basis of the cellular mechanisms involved in the model cell-cell recognition system of self-incompatibility (SI) in Papaver rhoeas (the Field Poppy). Her research, which includes 3 publications in Nature, has been highlighted in News & Views and “Editor’s Choice” in Nature and in “Leading Edge” in Cell.
