Biography

Eirini’s interest in biology led her from the island of Kos, Greece to the UK. She obtained a degree in Biotechnology (with Work Placement) form the University of Glasgow in 2004. Eirini was introduced to the world of photoreceptor research during her Work Placement at Stanford University (Briggs lab, Carnegie Inst. of Washington), and subsequently completed her PhD in 2008 at the University of Glasgow (Prof. Jenkins lab) investigating the function and localisation of the first genetically encoded UV-B receptor, UVR8. After her PhD., Eirini briefly worked on phototropin research and was involved in developing the plant blue-light sensory LOV domain into a fluorescent marker at the lab of Prof. Christie (University of Glasgow). In 2009, Eirini was awarded a Human Frontiers Science Program postdoctoral fellowship to join the Chory lab at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies (La Jolla, California), where she studied the function of a novel signalling component integrating light, hormone and clock networks to promote plant growth. In 2013, Eirini received a Lord Kelvin Adam Smith Fellowship to establish her own lab at the University of Glasgow. The focus of her research is to understand how environmental stimuli induce changes in nuclear architecture, chromatin organisation and gene expression to regulate plant growth and development. In particular, she is interested in elucidating the molecular function, composition and physiological significance of the light-regulated nuclear body complexes in plants using a multi-disciplinary approach.
