My lab (Plants X Tech) focuses on incorporating cutting edge technology into established methods of plant science research. Our current focus is on the development of high-throughput, low-cost methods that leverage technologies like 3D printing. By creating innovative tools and resources, we aim to empower researchers and conservationists with the means to tackle challenges in a resource-efficient manner. By involving my students in projects that incorporate a wide range of data sources, collection methods, and bespoke solutions, I aim to nurture the next generation of scientists with a profound appreciation for collaboration, exploratory methods, and biodiversity in plant science.
