Andres Romanowski

Andres Romanowski is an Assistant Professor at Wageningen University & Research, affiliated with the Laboratory of Molecular Biology. His research focuses on the interplay between light signaling and plant physiology, particularly in Arabidopsis thaliana and rice systems.

• Active in phytochrome and transcription factor mechanisms
• Key areas: shade avoidance syndrome, cytokinin signaling, brassinosteroid pathways
• Collaborates on multidisciplinary projects integrating molecular biology with computational approaches

Recent work explores plant gene expression under environmental cues like far-red light and nitrate availability, often employing Arabidopsis as a model organism. He also contributes to computational methods for pavement cell segmentation in plant tissue analysis.

• Co-promotor for three PhD projects on plant protein mobility, root architecture, and shade avoidance syndrome
• Co-author of datasets on gene expression under shade and nitrogen variation

His publications span plant stress responses, transcriptional regulation, and environmental adaptation mechanisms.
