The Current Lab

Antony Chetoor is a PhD student in the Interdepartmental Plant Physiology and Molecular Biology program. His project is to identify a ligand for the CR4 receptor kinase.

Kejian Li is a PhD student in the Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology program. Her project is to identify proteins that interact with the cytoplasmic domain of the CR4 receptor kinase.

Juan Liu is an MS student in the Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology program. She is isolating genes that are regulated by the CR4 signal transduction pathway.

Xueyuan Cao is a PhD student in the Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology program. He is analyzing the family of CR4-related receptor kinases in Arabidopsis.

Nrisingha Dey is a postdoc. He works on the genomics project in endosperm development.

Elisabeth Bendo just graduated with her BS in Genetics and will enter a PhD program at the University of Pennsylvania.

Lindsay Compton just graduated with a BS in Biology and will attend dental school at the University of Iowa.

Jen Lin spent the last 2 summers working in the lab and will pursue a PhD at Duke.
