Biography:
Ivan Paponov received his Ph. D. degree from the Moscow Timyrazev Academy in Russia in 1992. Following postdoctoral periods at Moscow Lomonosov University and the University of Hohenheim in Stuttgart, he worked on genotypic aspects of mineral nutrition in higher plants. In 2002, he began research at the University of Freiburg in the field of auxin transport and auxin signalling in which he applied the chemical genetics and bioinformatics tools. He is currently a researcher at the Norwegian Institute of Bioeconomy. His research focus is on plant adaptation to different environments, with emphasis on the molecular responses of plants to light, CO2 concentration and nitrogen.
Title : Positive and negative feedback between reactive oxygen species and auxin for adjustment of plant growth under stress conditions
