Paris H. Greyphgrey@.ulf.edu
Coordinator of Research Programs
Paris joined the lab in 1994.
Paris' research projects include: a functional analysis of the FRC3 protein, genetic engineering of trichomes
for heavy metal removal, and high-throughput in situ expression analysis of genes involved in flower
development in basal angiosperms.

Zhengui "Patrick" Zhengpatrickz@ufl.edu
Postdoctoral Research Associate
Patrick joined the lab in 2003 and has developed high-throughput methods to examine
gene expression in situ. Patrick is currently studying a novel transcriptional regulator
of flower development, and is examining the expression of several hundred transcriptional regulators
in several basal angiosperm species.

Xiaoguo Zhangxgzhang@ufl.edu
PhD Student
Xiaoguo joined the lab in 1999 and has been studying several genes that control
trichome branch initiation and elongation in Arabidopsis. One of these genes, ITB1,
encodes a homolog of Scar/WAVE, which regulates the Arp2/3 complex. The Arp2/3 complex is
a regulator of actin polymerization in both plant and animal cells.

Stacey Jeffriesjeffr004@ufl.edu
PhD Student
Stacey earned her BS in Biology at Stillman College in Alabama in 2000. She joined the lab in 2001
and studies the function of the microtubule severing protein, katanin, in plant cell morphogenesis and its
interactions with a novel kinesin.

Meredith Sullivanms79@ufl.edu
MS Student
Meredith joined the lab as an undergraduate researcher.
In 2003, she continued her studies in the Oppenheimer lab as a graduate student.
Meredith uses high-throughput methods to examine the in situ expression patterns of 25 different transcriptional
regulator genes.
