Rea ANTONIOU-KOUROUNIOTI

Lecturer at the University of Glasgow, investigating the mechanisms behind cold-responsive gene regulation in plants, by combining mathematical modelling approaches and experimental techniques.

School of Molecular Biosciences, University of Glasgow (UK)

Pau FORMOSA-JORDAN

Quantitative approaches to multicellular dynamics in plant development

Max Planck Institute for Plant Breeding Research (Germany)

Sofiane GUESSASMA

Research Director, interested in mechanical engineering, processing and materials science, with several contributions related to the microstructural interpretation of material performance, mechanical modelling, image analysis, and in-situ experiments.

Kalina HAAS

Research scientist, biophysicist insterested in the subcellular mechanisms of growth and morphogenesis in plants, using in particular computational modeling, optogenetics, super-resolution microscopy

INRAE Centre IdF de Versailles-Saclay (FRANCE)

Olivier Loudet

Olivier LOUDET

Research Director, interested in the genetic architecture of complex traits: what is the genetic (or epigenetic) basis for variation in size, form, environmental responses... He essentially studies these questions taking advantage of the natural diversity existing within a wild and model species (Arabidopsis thaliana), combined to novel high-throughput phenotyping robots, with the help of Mathematics.
