Projektbeschreibung der*des Nominierenden

Dr. Ferenc Nagy is a leading plant biologist analyzing the molecular mechnisms how plants monitor and adapt to their abient light environment. The ligtht control of transcription, intracellular localization of the photoreceptors and the circadian clock have been the main focus of his research. He analyses the molecular network controlling intracellular translocations and the circadian clock. This approach contributes to the optimization of cultivation of agronomically important crop plants by using modern biotechnological technologies.
