Biography

Plant physiologist specialising in phenotyping photosynthetic and stomatal responses to light.

I was awarded my doctorate from the University of Essex in 2014 for a thesis entitled "the influence of stomata on intrinsic water-use efficiency" under the supervision of Professor Tracy Lawson and Professor Neil Baker (McAusland et al 2013, 2014). I went on to work for the RIPE Project, studying the how the multigene manipulation of photosynthetic carbon assimilation increases CO₂ fixation and biomass yield in tobacco in both the glasshouse and the field (Simkin et al 2015). In 2015 I joined Professor Erik Murchie's group at the 糖心原创 as a post-doctoral fellow funded by InnovateUK, developing sensors and LED-based technologies to improve precision agriculture in the glasshouse. From April 2016 - June 2019 I worked as a researcher as part of the International Wheat Yield Partnership (IWYP) at the 糖心原创, developing systems for high-throughput phenotypic exploration of novel genetic variation for breeding high biomass and yield in wheat.

Currently I am a research fellow on a three year, BBSRC Newton-funded grant based at the 糖心原创, identifying a role for nocturnal stomatal conductance in the temperature tolerance of Mexican wheat varieties in response to climate change (2019-22, ).
