| Dr. Fabricio Medina-Bolívar, Plant Metabolic Engineering, ABI, gave a talk at the annual meeting of the Phytochemical Society of North America, at the Donald Danforth Plant Science Center, St. Louis. His talk focused on using hairy roots to study how plants respond to environmental pollutants. This presentation was a collaborative effort among the research groups headed by Dr. Argelia Lorence, Plant Metabolic Engineering, Dr. Kelly Redeker, Analytical Chemistry, Dr. Robyn Hannigan, Geochemistry, and Dr. Medina-Bolívar. Dr. Medina-Bolívar's research group also made three other presentations at the meeting, including a talk by Dr. Ganapathy Sivakumar, Plant Metabolic Engineering, ABI, and two posters from Molecular Biosciences PhD students Jose Condori and Cesar Nopo-Olazabal. |
