He joined the CNRGV for a 5-month internship (from April 2017 to the end of August 2017) in order to validate his Professional Degree GeBAP (Genome and Biotechnology for the Improvement of Plants).

The aim of his project is to study a genomic region involved in frost tolerance in pea (Pisum sativum). Frost can cause major damages in pea production and it's a major challenge to understand the molecular basis of this tolerance.

This project belongs to the PeaMUST project.
