Georg Jander is an American plant biologist at the Boyce Thompson Institute in Ithaca, New York[1] and an adjunct professor in the Plant Biology Section of the School of Integrative Plant Sciences at Cornell University.[2] Jander is known for his research identifying plant genes involved in synthesis of biochemical compounds, particularly those related to insect resistance.[3][4]

Education

Jander earned his undergraduate degree in computer science from the McKelvey School of Engineering at Washington University in St. Louis in 1983.[5] He received his Ph.D. in Microbiology and Molecular Genetics from Harvard Medical School in 1996 under the supervision of Jon Beckwith.[6]

Career and research

Jander has worked as a postdoctoral fellow in the lab of Fred Ausubel[7] and as a scientist at Monsanto.[8]

He currently works as a faculty member at the Boyce Thompson Institute, where his lab studies the genetic mechanisms that control plant secondary metabolism involved in defense against insects.[9][10][11] A particular focus of the Jander lab has been research involving plant interactions with aphids.[12][13] Jander's research publications have been cited more than 17,000 times.[3]

Since 2005, Jander has been the principal investigator for a undergraduate plant science summer internship program at the Boyce Thompson Institute.[14]
