Biography:
T. Schlemmer did his bachelor’s in biology and his master’s in crop science between 2013 and 2018. Since 2018, he joined the Institute of Phytopathology at the Justus-Liebig-University Gießen for doing his Ph.D. He focuses on the mechanistically basis of RNAi mediated resistance of Arabidopsis thaliana towards the crop pathogen Fusarium graminearum. For example, which components are necessary for double stranded RNA processing, packaging and transport into fungal cells.
