PLANT GENETICS
Solving world hunger through potatoes! Dr Compton is associate professor of genetics at the University of Birmingham where she is based at the Centre for Computational Biology. Her research is in plant genetics using the potato as her model organism. Using modern genetics her hope is to tackle world hunger and malnutrition through efficient genetic research. This work has spanned the globe with collaborations in North and South America. She is on the board of the Genetics Society UK and has published much research in her field.
Through the use of modern genetic tools we can tackle serious challenges of drought, pests, unnecessary food wastage, viruses and climate change. Lindsey's amazing work is at the forefront of this effort.
