Our researcher Joe Beesley had a great day out collecting Oak cuttings with Johnatan Vilasboa & Amanda Rasmussen - Uni of Nottingham #WeAreUoN our partners on the Forestry Commission Tree Production Innovation Fund (TPIF) to get oak on it's own rooting system to help secure a future for our mighty oaks.

Super proud of this amazing person! Now Dr Findimila Dio Ishaya! It's been quite the journey we've been on together from masters through PhD - with three kids (one during PhD) and pandemic lockdowns with associated home schooling! I recommend her dedication to anyone hiring!

Just back from another great trip to Dr. Erin E. Sparks . Thanks for having us! Especially also thanks to The Royal Society for the international exchange grant! This marks the last of those funded trips but by no means the last of our collaboration!

Back in the field! This time for our maize work with Dr. Erin E. Sparks at UDel and with Susan Abernathy along too!
