Will is a PhD student based in Jim Haseloff’s group in the Department of Plant Sciences, and a member of Corpus Christi College. He completed a BSc in Biological Sciences at the University of Warwick, where for his final year project he worked on the photosynthetic electron transport chain in cyanobacteria, within David Scanlan’s lab. It was during his time at Warwick that he developed an interest in both organellar biology and biotechnology, and so for his PhD he wanted to combine these interests.
