Tim is a Rhizosphere Scientist based at the James Hutton Institute, interested in understanding the physiology of and genetic controls on plant responses to P-deficiency and drought. Tim has specific expertise in understanding how the external environment mitigates plant physiological and genetic responses to a lack of phosphorus in the rhizosphere.
Sally is based at the Royal Botanic Garden and is currently doing research towards her PhD, jointly working with Royal Botanic Garden and the University of Glasgow. Her research uses meta-population modelling to reconstruct patterns in the distribution and abundance of oceanic epiphyte species and to infer exological processes for better habitat management.
Katharine is a senior statistician at BioSS, based at the James Hutton Institute. Katharine has a background in ecological modelling with a focus on spatial systems and physiologically based models.
Christopher is head of Cryptogamic Plants and Fungi at the Royal Botanical Garden in Edinburgh, using his research to understand how habitat management can offset negative impacts of global change. He co-ordinates RBGE's Scottish biodiversity science, including activities contributing to the Scottish Biodiversity Strategy (2020 Route Map) and the Scottish Government’s Strategic Research Programme (Theme 1 - Natural Assets).
Alison is a research leader in ecological sciences at the James Hutton Institute. Alison is an agroecologist with 20 years research experience in plant production and ecology, with a focus on agroecosystem biodiversity and pest biocontrol under reduced inputs and climate change. Her research interests are driven by the wider challenges of how to enchance ecosystem service provision in agroecosystems and optimise sustainable crop production.
Aline is a molecular ecologist at the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh, whos research focus is conservation and ecological genetics of threatened and important plant species.
Zulin is a senior research scientist at the James Hutton Institute, interested in investigating environmnetal geochemical behaviour (source, transport and fate), removal effect and risk assessment of organic contaminants including endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs), persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and emerging organic contaminants. Also he is interested in developing new analytical and monitoring techniques (e.g. passive sampling, online extraction, chromatography and mass spectrometry) for emerging organic contaminants of different environmental matrices with an emphasis on compounds
Samia is an Environmental Scientist at the James Hutton institute, specialising in point sources of pollution and water quality where septic tanks can act as multiple points of pollutants impacting surface water quality increasing phosphorus, nitrogen and microbial loads to water courses. Samia's current work is focused on Resource Recovery from Wastes, tackling current worldwide sustainability problems (Phosphorus amendment) through the identification of nutrient-cycling pathway to maximise soil quality and crop productivity using wastes (food and crops anaerobic digestates and biomass ash)
