About
Dr. Reka Toth is a Departmental Lecturer in the Department of Biology at the University of Oxford. Her research focuses on plant developmental biology, specifically investigating cellular-level regulation of developmental processes by endogenous and exogenous signals. She uses Marchantia polymorpha, an emerging model organism in plant evolutionary biology, to study the first formative division of liverwort spores.
Her key research questions include understanding the cellular mechanisms of asymmetric cell division in Marchantia spores, identifying molecular components governing cell fate determination, and exploring evolutionary conservation of asymmetric division across plant lineages. She employs genetic and cell biology tools in this work.
