Leading scientist's research interests: Genetics/metabolomics/proteomics approaches to identification of new genes (regulatory and biosynthesis), metabolic engineering of plants, plant and yeast cell cultures, site-specific modification of genomes and genetic modification of plants, producing a potential anti-malaria medication, artemisin in transgenic plants.

Quote by the leading scientist: We will grow tobacco and extract cure for malaria from it which, actually, wasn't meant by the nature.
