I am a PhD student in the Wellcome Trust-funded EDESIA PhD programme working under the supervision of Dr Cathrina Edwards and Prof Pete Wilde at the Quadram Institute Bioscience, and Prof Claire Domoney at the John Innes Centre, Norwich.

The general aim of my research is to investigate the impact of novel mutations in pea (Pisum sativum L.) on the techno-functional properties and overall quality of these pulses.
