Nominator's project description

Professor Roessner has made ground-breaking contributions to the development of metabolomics. Her pioneering work established frontier technologies for analyses of metabolites in plants, enabling the application of metabolomics in plant biology and biotechnology. In Germany, Professor Roessner investigates communication and interaction mechanisms between plants and microbes and how challenging environments impact plant-microbe interactions.
