Research Interests

With a background in analytical chemistry and metabolomics for characterising food and plant metabolites, I am keen on applying these techniques to study carotenoid or strigolactone-related pathways in depth and answer fundamental biological questions. By combining analytical precision with biological insights, I hope to uncover novel aspects of these pathways that could enhance our understanding of plant development and adaptation.
