معرفی
Alice Harmon is a Professor at the University of Florida within the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. Her research focuses on molecular mechanisms of plant responses to environmental stimuli, particularly calcium signaling through calcium-dependent protein kinases (CDPKs). She earned her Ph.D. from the University of Georgia in 1985 and is affiliated with the Department of Biology (implied via research focus). Her work integrates molecular biology, proteomics, and plant physiology to understand stress responses and signaling pathways.
Research interests include calcium signaling in plant stress responses, protein kinase regulation, and the role of CDPKs in mediating responses to light, pathogens, and oxidative stress. Techniques employed include mass spectrometry-based proteomics and in vitro phosphorylation studies.
Key publications (2004–2006) highlight advancements in understanding calcium signaling pathways, symbiotic interactions, and proteomic analysis of plant proteins. Her lab’s work bridges molecular mechanisms with broader ecological and agricultural implications.
No scientific awards are explicitly listed. She advises students in plant biology and proteomics, though specific advisee names are not provided. Her research is supported by grants related to plant signaling and stress biology, though specific grant details are absent from the text.
Affiliations include the Biology Seminar Series and CLAS IT resources. Her lab is located in 621 Carr Hall, and she can be reached at harmon@ufl.edu.
