On 23 Feb, PlantEd and #UKPlantSciPresents co-organised a webinar on “CRISPR/Cas-mediated mutagenesis of plant traits”. Prof. Goetz Hensel, Institute of Plant Biochemistry, Heinrich-Heine University, Germany, presented his research, followed by selected questions from virtual attendees, moderated by the webinar chair. The event was supported by MonoGram, the Bristol Centre for Agricultural Innovation, Novogene, and GARNet.
The video recording is available on the PlantEd YouTube page:
COST (European Cooperation in Science and Technology) is a funding agency for research and innovation networks. Our Actions help connect research initiatives across Europe and enable scientists to grow their ideas by sharing them with their peers. This boosts their research, career and innovation.
A great challenge of this century is to provide adequate nutrition for an increasing global population while developing a more socially, economically and environmentally sustainable agriculture that counters climate change, biodiversity loss and degradation of arable land.
