Grey Monroe is an Associate Professor in the Department of Plant Sciences at UC Davis, with affiliations in the Genome Center and Climate Adaptation Research Center. He completed his PhD at Colorado State University with John McKay and postdoctoral research at the Max Planck Institute for Developmental Biology with Detlef Weigel.

His lab uses emerging sequencing technologies to study mutation rate variation, epigenome-recruited DNA repair, and climate adaptation in plants. The lab has particular interests in understudied crop breeding, gene loss in plant climate adaptation, and how the epigenome shapes the mutational landscape of plant genomes.
