Camilla Valeria Hörsch is a molecular biologist completing her PhD in plant science. She is interested in understanding how plants sense and adapt to different temperatures.
EN: How do plants sense temperature?
DE: Wie fühlen Pflanzen, wie warm es ist?
How do plants sense temperature and adapt to warmer climate conditions? Plants have evolved fascinating sensors and signaling networks to adapt their growth to different temperatures that we just now begin to discover. In my work, I study proteins that are part of those molecular sensing networks we need to understand to generate climate resilient crops in the future.
