Dr. Emil Vatov

During his PhD Emil studied the interplay between nutrition senescence and DNA methylation in Arabidopsis thaliana. His work focused on physiological analyses including hormonal homeostasis, primary metabolites and reactive oxygen species. His experience in statistics and programming helped him produce and analyze whole genome bisulfate sequencing data linking flowering and senescence. Earlier during his master and bachelor studies he participated in controlled experiments with barley, wheat, maize, cauliflower and Miscanthus, together with professional experience in vegetable production, specializing on tomato cultivation.
