RESEARCH FIELD:

Previous research has focused on various physiological processes in plants, the field of mineral nutrition with special emphasis on heavy metals and phytoremediation. As part of his doctoral thesis, he deals with the antioxidant metabolism of aquatic macrophytes, heavy metals and the physiology of stress.
