TitleLangdale, Jane Alison: certificate of election to the Royal Society
Date30 April 2015
DescriptionCertificate of Candidate for Election to the Fellowship
CitationProfessor Jane Alison Langdale, Professor of Plant Development, Department of Plant Sciences, University of Oxford

Jane Langdale has produced a body of work that has transformed our understanding of how plants make leaves and how leaves changed during major evolutionary transitions. The breadth of her research program has led to the elucidation of mechanisms operating throughout leaf development - from the earliest stages of organ inception and specification at the shoot apex, through patterning of distinct cell-types, to chloroplast biogenesis. She has done all of this in a comparative framework and has thus advanced our understanding of leaf development not just in model flowering plant species but in species from all major land plant lineages.
