DESCRIPTION:"Dynamic evolution of gene duplications and their interactions 
 in shaping trait variation"\n\n  Zach Lippman is a Professor of Plant Biol
 ogy at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) and a Howard Hughes Medical In
 stitute (HHMI) Investigator. His research group integrates genetics\, deve
 lopment\, genomics\, and genome editing to study flowering and flower prod
 uction in nature and agriculture. Taking advantage of natural and induced 
 variation in these processes in tomato and related Solanaceae plants\, Lip
 pman's group has shown how stem cell proliferation and maturation underlie
  diversity in vegetative and reproductive shoot systems. Identifying the g
 enes and mechanisms underlying this diversity have led to broader explorat
 ion on the roles of structural variation\, gene regulation\, and epistasis
  in development\, domestication\, and breeding. Based on these discoveries
 \, Lippman is developing and applying innovative concepts and tools for cr
 op improvement. His contributions to plant genetics and genome editing wer
 e recognized with receiving a MacArthur Fellowship and the US National Aca
 demy of Sciences Award in Food and Agriculture.
