Academic and Professional Background

• Personal Resume:

  Milena's PhD is on Ca2+ signalling in symbiois of Epichloe in perennial ryegrass. Milena graduated from the University of Belgrade in 2006, where she studied in the Faculty of Molecular Biology and Physiology. Her research explores calcium signaling machinery in Epichloe festucae and the role this plays in the symbiotic interaction between this fungus and its host. Of special interest is the potential for crosstalk between calcium and ROS signaling in E. festucae. Her supervisor is Prof Barry Scott (Massey University).
