Diep Ganguly

Diep Ganguly is a Fellow at The Australian National University, affiliated with the Research School of Biology. Her research focuses on (epi)genomic and (epi)transcriptomic drivers of plant acclimation and adaptation, with an emerging emphasis on crops and wild natives. She is a member of the Nicotra Group, which explores plant physiological ecology, plant evolutionary biology, and reproductive ecology. Ganguly is also associated with the Division of Ecology and Evolution and the ARC DECRA Fellow program. Her work is based in Room W309A, Level 3, RN Robertson Building.

Diep Ray Ganguly is a researcher at the Australian National University with expertise in Epigenomics, RNA Biology, and Plant Molecular Ecology. Their work explores the intersections of stress recovery, RNA turnover, and epigenetics in plants, focusing on mechanisms such as DNA methylation stability under drought stress and retrograde signaling in chloroplast communication. Ganguly investigates how RNA polymerase II read-through and covalent nucleotide modifications in plant mRNAs influence gene regulation and stress responses. Their research also addresses the role of SWEET proteins in phloem loading and the impact of genetic variation on climate-resilient crops. By examining molecular pathways in plant development and chloroplast biogenesis, Ganguly contributes to understanding plant adaptation to environmental stress.
