TORII Laboratory
		Quick Links HHMI-GBMF supporting plant biology 2010 UW Undergrad Research Mentor Award 2007 AAAS-L'Oreal Women in Science Booklet 2008 JSPS Prize 2008 JST PREST Investigator Interview with Dr. Torii (in Japanese) Listen to Dr. Torii "Don't be SPEECHLESS, SCREAM for VOTE: Mechanism of Stomatal Patterning and Differentiation" Nov 4, 2008

The Torii lab studies how plant cells coordinate proliferation and differentiation during organ morphogenesis to generate beautiful, orderly patterns. We aim to understand the molecular and genetic bases of cell-cell communication that specifies organ size, shape, and epidermal (stomatal) patterning.
