Welcome to my research website
I am Jyoti Kakati, a plant biotechnologist specializing in genome engineering, stress physiology, and multi-omics approaches to improve crop resilience. My research focuses on understanding how plants respond to environmental stresses such as drought and heat, and translating this knowledge into sustainable solutions for agriculture.
I integrate CRISPR-based genome editing, metabolomics, and emerging AI-driven approaches to identify key regulators of stress tolerance and develop innovative strategies for crop improvement. My work spans from fundamental plant biology to applied research, including the development of disease-resistant crops and RNA-based biopesticides.
My long-term vision is to build an interdisciplinary research program that bridges biology, data science, and biotechnology to address global challenges in food security and climate resilience.
