 After later becoming intrigued by the idea of Biology (Biochemistry in particular), she knew that she had uncovered the right balance between experimental accuracy and real-life effect, so she decided to take things further and study molecular genetics.Focusing specifically on "Asymmetry, Fate and Renewal in Plant Development" , Bergmann uses the development of stomata as a model to study cell fate, the self renewal of stem cells and cell polarity in plants.Bergmann, along with her team (collectively known as "The Bergmann Lab"), use a large variety of genetic, genomic and imaging methods to inquire into different variations of cell development, and they are also examining gene expression in singular cells.
