What a fun time I had at presenting my poster for #PlantBio2024 by @ASPB. Standing up with joy for my diploid potatoes 🥔 . Proud to represent the @JohnInnesCentre and @NRPBIODTP all the way in Honolulu, and connect with wonderful scientists across the world.

It's done! How fun was it to talk about #starch! Thank you so much @pintofscience for the opportunity and thank you to the very engaged audience. Proud to represent @JohnInnesCentre.
@TheSainsburyLab Next up we had @Thomnavsens who used his talk as an opportunity to give everyone food envy whilst teaching us about resistant starch 🥔🍝 . #pint24 @pintofscience @JohnInnesCentre

My potato plants are in the video! And so am I. But what is more important is the precision breeding act. @DefraGovUK opening the doors towards improved agriculture. Excited to see the future of this!. #agriculture #potato.
Changes we’ve made to legislation mean that scientists can now develop:. 🌾 More resilient wheat.🍓 Longer flowering strawberries.🍅 Vitamin D-packed tomatoes. Using #ScienceAndTechUK for more nutritious and resilient crops makes it good news for consumers and our farmers.

It was a pleasure to talk about the future of potatoes and the potential of precision breeding to deliver healthier potatoes with improved quality to consumers. Let's make it a reality! . #FoodSecurity #potatoes.
Great to welcome Mark Spencer MP @Mark_Spencer, Food and Farming Minister @DefraGovUK to @NorwichResearch today for a tour of our facilities and to discuss the innovative research currently being carried out 🔬🌾

I might have purposely got lost and ended up watching a talk about my favourite class of animals instead of plant talks. But it was so much fun, who doesn't want to learn about cephalopods? . Science is so cool! 🤩. @SEBiology #SEBconference
