Problem Solver
Rasha Zuluf
Areas Rasha Zuluf is Knowledgeable in:
I have been working in plant molecular biology for almost 40 years (even before it was a recognized discipline). I am particularly interested in how the genome rapidly undergoes restricted reorganization in response to stress and the consequences for the organism. I am involved in training efforts in Southern Africa and mentor junior faculty and students there. I enjoy innovating in teaching methods and have received grants for developing innovative courses.
For relaxation I grow vegetables in the summer and occasionally play golf with a couple of my sons. In the winter I work on home improvements, read thrillers and science fiction and watch sports on TV. I spend time with my children (most of whom live in the area) and my grandchildren.
