Assessing the Financial Implications of Integrating Food, Energy, and Biodiversity on UK Farms
Integrating food production, renewable energy generation, and biodiversity conservation on UK farms presents an innovative approach to sustainable agriculture. Read more
The digital inspector: using artificial intelligence to identify plant diseases.
The UK biosecurity front line, the Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA), inspect material moving into the UK. With climate change, species which would not have previously been a problem for the UK are becoming credible. Read more

Mylnefield Trust Scholars: Revolutionizing Raspberry Breeding: Advancing into the Molecular Era with Cutting-Edge Molecular Marker Tools
Climate change, arising pests and diseases, and labour costs are straining many local agricultural systems. Advances in genetics and genomics research have successfully identified molecular markers associated with increased yield, resistance to diseases or timing of key phenology events. Read more
Exploring Chicken Vocalisations to Advance Precision Livestock Farming and Animal Welfare
PhD Opportunity. Exploring Chicken Vocalisations to Advance Precision Livestock Farming and Animal Welfare. Read more
SUMO code: deciphering how SUMOylation enables plants to adapt to their environment
Proteins undergo post-translational modifications (PTMs) that have evolved in all forms of life as a mechanism for rapidly adapting protein function in response to many different kinds of stimuli. Read more

MSc by Research: Targeted protein degradation in plants – developing “Green PROTACs” for functional analysis of lethal genes
Climate change is one of the biggest threats to global food production, leading to unpredictable weather patterns and geographical migration of pathogens. Read more
MSc by Research: Feel the tension – how does S-acylation of OSCA ion channels regulate responses to environmental change in plants?
Plants, being sessile organisms, must sense and respond to environmental change, such as temperature or drought, without being able to move. Read more
Biochar-amended soil for resilient agriculture, soil health and climate change mitigation- An Integrated Assessment
Background. Biomass releases greenhouse gas emissions through natural decay or when burnt. Read more
Scale dependence in landscape restoration: tracking biodiversity gains and agricultural sustainability under environmental land management
Cumbria Connect is a 33,000-hectare nature restoration partnership that started in 2023 and sits less than 10 miles to the northeast from our Ambleside Campus. Read more
