Dr. Aakansha Kanojia
Position: Postdoctoral researcher
Department: Molecular Stress Physiology, CPSBB
The main area of Kanojia’s research is plant stress physiology. She investigated the biological pathways involved in the reduction of plant stress tolerance with age in Arabidopsis thaliana. She has developed extensive expertise in detailed morphological characterization and physiological experiments in plants, gene mapping, plant tissue culture, metabolomics, transcriptomic and DNA sequencing data analysis.
