Translation: Soil is the basis of life on Earth, but by some estimates we have only 60 years of if left due to the way we currently produce food.

Computational biophysics research on 3-D self-organisation of the soil-root-microbe system. Translation: Soil is the basis of life on Earth, but by some estimates we have only 60 years of if left due to the way we currently produce food. The problem is that we still don't understand how soil works due to its incredible complexity of interwoven biological and physical processes. So we took aim at finding a 'Grand Unified Theory of Soil'. Simulation work written in C.Published in peer-reviewed journal: "Effects of cropping systems upon the three-dimensional architecture of soil systems are modulated by texture" (Geoderma)Trained as Analyst in Applied Information Economics with Hubbard Decision Research.
