معرفی
Jens Stougaard is Professor of Plant Molecular Biology at Aarhus University, where he directs the Centre for Carbohydrate Recognition and Signalling (CARB). His research deciphers molecular mechanisms of plant-microbe symbiosis.
Research focuses on:
- Genetic control of nitrogen-fixing symbiosis
- Receptor-mediated signaling in legumes
- Evolutionary adaptations in plant-microbe interactions
- Sustainable crop improvement strategies
Recent high-impact publications in Nature journals reveal structural determinants of symbiotic signaling. His work has transformed understanding of receptor function in nodule development.
He leads pan-European projects including ENSA (Enabling Nutrient Symbioses in Agriculture) and InRoot, examining root-soil microbiome interactions. Research has yielded 250+ publications and multiple patents.
His team maintains extensive international collaborations across 15+ countries and hosts visiting scholars worldwide.
