Shirin Moradi. PhD
Shirin Moradi is a plant researcher at Ljusgårda, working with plant factories, vegetable breeding, and controlled cultivation systems. Her research focuses on how environmental parameters — particularly light — influence plant growth, development stages, and physiological performance in controlled environments. Her work combines academic research in horticultural plant breeding with applied experience in vertical farming and plant factory systems.
About This Author
Shirin holds a PhD and MSc in Horticultural Plant Breeding from the University of Tehran. Her doctoral research investigated the effects of light on saffron growth and molecular aspects of plant development.
During her PhD, she completed a visiting research fellowship at the University of Copenhagen, where she worked on saffron polyploidy and molecular biology.
Her academic training includes work with:
- Plant factory cultivation systems
- Vertical farming in controlled conditions
- Light spectrum modulation and plant response
- Gene expression analysis
- Tissue culture and micropropagation
- Biotechnological approaches to plant breeding
Research Focus
Shirin’s research has included:
- Light-driven modulation of plant development
- Saffron cultivation in artificial light environments
- Somatic embryogenesis in orchids
- Polyploidy research
- Micropropagation and plant biotechnology
Her work bridges plant physiology, environmental control systems, and applied cultivation research.
Professional Role at Ljusgårda
At Supernormal Greens, Shirin works within plant factory systems and controlled cultivation environments. Her focus is on understanding how cultivation parameters affect plant performance across different growth stages.
This perspective supports Supernormal Greens’ broader emphasis on plant-level consistency, controlled production systems, and research-aligned botanical development.
