Erik Nielsen is Professor of Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology at the University of Michigan. His research investigates plant cellular processes essential for growth and development.
Research emphases:
- Mechanisms of polarized secretion in plants
- Cell wall biosynthesis and patterning
- Membrane trafficking pathways
- Rab GTPase regulation in Arabidopsis
Recent studies explore how cellulose synthase complexes are targeted to specific plasma membrane domains and the role of KORRIGAN proteins in cell wall formation.
His laboratory combines genetic, biochemical, and live-cell imaging approaches to understand how plants construct complex cell wall architectures during development and stress responses.
