Plants for Life
The Plants for Life profile will provide integrative and state-of-the-art training in plant biology, going from the molecules that govern plant development and growth, to the physiological processes underlying the interactions of plants with their environment. Plant breeding and biotechnology will be approached as tools for the sustainable use of plants in the global economy.
