RaoN_U22DEV Sustainable Aquaculture for Food and Nutrition Security in East Africa
Aquatic foods have great potential for food and nutrition security for East Africa’s rapidly rising population. However, fish stocks in its numerous lakes are rapidly depleting, and aquaculture is poorly regulated, leading to environmental problems and fish diseases. Read more
Shedding light on the functioning of root-fungal symbioses with high resolution isotopic imaging
In this exciting multi-disciplinary project, you will work at the interface between physical and biological sciences, using the latest technologies in both to address key questions that underlie food security in the face of changing climates. Read more
Plant-insect interactions in a changing world
Project Overview: . Insects associated with plants comprise one of the most diverse groups of species on earth. Their impact on the ecology and evolution of their host plants is widely recognised, as is their contribution to multiple important ecosystem services. Read more
