Publications Schattat Lab
The Schattat Lab exists since 2012 and its startup at the Martin-Luther-University Halle-Wittenberg (Germany) in the plant physiology department was fully funded by the EFRE Program in Saxony Anhalt for 2 years. Since my arrival in Halle (Saale) we continued work on plastid morphology (stromules) and expanded our research to different topics. The publication list below provides an overview of the fruits of our research activities in our own lab and in collaboration with colleagues on campus and internationally.
