Dr Volkan Cevik

Volkan’s research focuses on molecular characterisation of interactions between plants and their pathogens. His research interests include mechanistic understanding of processes such as how pathogens manipulate the host plant to cause disease and in turn how plants perceive microbial pathogenicity proteins to activate defence. He uses multiple omics data and network approaches to predict regulatory genes, proteins and pathways determining the outcome of such interactions.
