Overview

David Bouchez is affiliated with INRAE, the Institut national de recherche pour l'agriculture, l'alimentation et l'environnement in France. Their research focuses primarily on plant sciences and molecular biology, with extensive work in agricultural and biological sciences.

The scientist's body of work covers a variety of topics related to plant molecular biology research, plant nutrient uptake and metabolism, plant reproductive biology, microtubule and mitosis dynamics, photosynthetic processes and mechanisms, antiplatelet therapy and cardiovascular diseases, and polysaccharides and plant cell walls.

Key recent publications include the following:

  • "B1-type cyclins control microtubule organization during cell division in Arabidopsis" (2021), published in EMBO Reports
  • "The phosphoinositide signature guides the final step of plant cytokinesis" (2023), published in Science Advances
  • "The cell cycle controls spindle architecture in Arabidopsis by activating the augmin pathway" (2024), published in Developmental Cell
  • "Spatiotemporal regulation of plant cell division" (2024), published in Current Opinion in Plant Biology

David Bouchez has collaborated frequently with several researchers, including:

  • Martine Pastuglia
  • Katia Belcram
  • Magalie Uyttewaal
  • Mariana Romeiro Motta
  • Arp Schnittger

Their publications have appeared predominantly in the following venues:

  • bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)
  • EMBO Reports
  • Science Advances
  • Developmental Cell
  • Current Opinion in Plant Biology

The research spans several subfields including plant science, molecular biology, cell biology, cardiology and cardiovascular medicine, and genetics. These areas reflect the interdisciplinary nature of their investigations into both plant biology and, to a lesser extent, cardiovascular studies.
