PeerJ Author

Summary

I started out doing my undergrad in Biochemistry at the University of Leipzig Germany. I switched half-way to study Plant Science at the Univeristy of Glasgow where I ended up during my Erasmus exchange year. For my PhD I moved down south to Norwich and joined Cyril Zipfel's group at the Sainsbury Laboratory. I am currently working in Pam Ronald's lab studying the rice innate immune system.
