I have now left Science Magazine After 18 years at top tier journals, I want to work more closely with scientists and stop focusing on journals, so I have started a new business as a consultant editor/writer biosciedit.co.uk

With a new Labour Govt focused on wealth creation, Johnathan Napier says that after 30 years’ safe and effective use of GM crops around the world, it’s time for Britain to ditch the time-consuming, costly & restrictive GMO rules we inherited from the EU. scienceforsustainableagriculture.com/johnathannapie…

Yikes, a 4-fold increase in nitrogen fertilizer use predicted to meet future global wheat demand. Clearly we need to find an alternative. nature.com/articles/s4147…

Very grateful for this cross-institutional collaboration with OpenWildWheat.org: new genome resources & genes cloned/characterized, and novel insights into wheat's evolutionary history.
