Scott D. Michaels studies the molecular biology of plants, focusing on how genes are turned on and off. Much of the work uses the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana to understand how chromatin (the packaged form of DNA) modifications, transcription control, and RNA processing affect gene expression, genome stability, and plant defense against pathogens.
