Your research might explore the remarkable diversity of Australia's native flora or examine plant processes across all biological scales, from cellular mechanisms to ecosystem roles. Alternative research directions could include studying plant adaptations to extreme environments, from Antarctic waters to arid deserts. You may also investigate solutions for environmental challenges like mining impacts or soil salinity.
