GMI

Welcome to the GMI
The Gregor Mendel Institute of Molecular Plant Biology (GMI) was founded by the Austrian Academy of Sciences (ÖAW) in 2000 to promote research excellence in the area of plant molecular biology. It is the only international center for basic plant research in Austria and one of only very few throughout the world. Research at the GMI covers many aspects of molecular biology, including basic mechanisms of epigenetics, cell biology, plant-pathogen interactions, developmental biology, and population genetics.
