Tom Fisher

Tom Fisher is a Research Fellow in the School of Biological Sciences at Monash University, affiliated with the Centre for Plant Success. He has been part of John Bowman's research group for over 8 years, focusing on liverwort development, particularly the role of the PIN gene and auxin transport mechanisms. His work combines transgenic approaches and confocal microscopy to study plant growth and developmental pathways in Marchantia polymorpha.

• Key Research Areas: Plant Development, Genetics, Evolution
• Technical Expertise: Transgenic systems, Confocal microscopy, Plant growth assays

Collaborations include international teams studying Marchantia as a model organism, with contributions to understanding hormonal signaling evolution and developmental transitions in early land plants.
