Guerinot Lab – Discovering the Genetic Basis of Metal Homeostasis

Welcome to the Guerinot Lab at Dartmouth!

The primary focus of our research is metal and metalloid homeostasis in plants, using a multi-disciplinary approach involving molecular genetics, ionomics and synchrotron x-ray fluorescence imaging. Our research uncovers key genes and their partners that regulate metal uptake, transport, and metabolism.
