I recently completed a PhD on the genetic regulation of wheat senescence (think leaf yellowing). I started at University of Birmingham in 2019 before moving to John Innes Centre in 2021. Previously, I achieved a BA in Biology (First) at the University of Oxford.My proudest achievements include:• learning and implementing the cutting-edge technique of DAP-seq in wheat,• collaborating in an industry placement (CASE) with RAGT UK in 2022 and achieving placement goals,• adapting through the pandemic and a lab relocation to deliver the PhD thesis on schedule,• leading discussion groups at workshops with the Rosalind Franklin Women in Wheat network, and• presenting my PhD research at the Monogram and SEB conferences in 2023 and in a recent preprint. https://doi.org/10.1101/2024.02.02.578592
