Alicia Russell is both a fourth year PhD Student here at the John Innes Centre and chair of the Student Voice committee, which provides support and representation for our PhD students, plus the odd board game and pizza night

Microbial science may look at the microscopic, but the breadth of microbial research being done here at the John Innes Centre is massive, so here’s an A-Z covering some of it

With plant research stretching from the genetic to the gigantic, we thought it would be worth creating an A-Z of some of the key pieces of work being done here

Where there are plants, there are insects. Our Entomology Department houses a large-range of insects and conducts insect-related research with an overarching aim to help tackle the issue of global food production
