Dr. Stephen KAMAU

Dr. Stephen Kamau, a molecular biologist specializing in plant biochemistry and physiology, applies his expertise to advance fundamental knowledge in plant science. His primary focus lies in identifying quality traits in forage crops to mitigate the negative environmental impact of ruminants. With a robust background, he contributes significantly to research areas including plant-microbe interactions, photosynthesis, carbon metabolism, antioxidant systems, enzymology, microbiology, and plant stress responses, including mechanisms leading to cell death. Currently, he is intrigued by exploring how stress memory in plants influences resilience in an ever-changing environment.
