The fruit industry relies on a small number of varieties and a decreasing number of chemicals, presenting serious challenges for future sustainable growth. No suitable high-quality varieties with resistant to pests and diseases are available. This is coupled with climate change where unpredictability in phenotypic expression is resulting at both small and large spatial scales.

Scotland’s Food Future: SEFARI Annual Scottish Parliament Showcase

Globally we face significant food challenges, such as the need to produce more food, for a growing population, with less available resources, and within the context of a changing climate and geo-political circumstances.

Our scientists are focusing on innovation right across Scotland's food supply chain.

Protein for Life – Developing food opportunities for a healthy, ageing population

'Protein for Life' is designed to identify and develop guidelines for protein products for healthy ageing (living a better, longer life) that are cost effective, sustainable and enjoyable.

Using a unique multidisciplinary approach we aim to understand current consumer behaviours around protein intake, and barriers and constraints to increasing protein intake in an ageing population.

My research interests focus on community initiatives, social change and social justice. I am particularly interested in the ways in which local and grassroots movements for change are influencing and being influenced by changes in governing. Further details can be found on my James Hutton Institute staff page.
