The Doctoral Program “MENTOR”, funded by the Austrian Science Fund, brings together some of Vienna's leading plant biology researchers to provide a stimulating and state-of-the-art training environment. It is hosted by the University of Vienna in cooperation with the Gregor Mendel Institute (GMI of the Austrian Academy of Sciences), the Austrian Institute of Technology (AIT), and the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences (BOKU).

MENTOR (Molecular MEchaNisms To ImprOve Plant Resilience) investigates different aspects of plant resilience, a highly relevant and pressing topic in a changing climate. MENTOR aims at providing insights into the molecular mechanisms of plant acclimation to stress. Nine highly experienced and competent research groups with complementary expertise in distinct aspects of plant stress responses will convey the necessary expertise to address these challenges.
