| I was born in Dillenburg, Hessen, Germany, a beer-brewing, as opposed to wine-making region. I studied Biology at Universities of Marburg and Giessen (1981-1987; degree ‘Diplom Biologe’) and did my PhD (Dr rer nat) in Plant Physiology in Giessen (1987-1991), in the lab of Prof. Edwin Pahlich. I then went on to do a postdoc in the group of Prof Deri Tomos at University of Bangor, North Wales (1992-1995), before going to Uppsala, Sweden, as guest researcher (1995-1996) to work with Dr. Jim MacDonald. I then went to Sussex University (1997), where I worked with Prof Tim Flowers, before becoming lecturer (Plant Physiology), then reader, at Paisley University, Scotland (1997-2006). In August 2006, I started my current lecturer post at UCD. |
