🔬 Using multi-omics & CRISPR, I aim to explore the genetic basis of key traits that shape crop adaptation & use. This could provide insights into how underutilized crops can be optimized for broader cultivation.

🍠 If mashua has so much potential, why isn't it widely grown? Certain biological traits limit its cultivation range and consumer acceptance. Studying these traits at the molecular level is key to unlocking its potential.

🌱 Tropaeolum tuberosum (mashua) is a resilient Andean tuber with high yield, pest resistance & nutritional value—yet it's still underutilized. Could this be a climate-resilient crop of the future? 🏔️🍽️

🚀 Exciting news! Thanks to the Klaus Tschira Boost Fund (@gso-forresearchers.bsky.social & @klaus-tschira-stiftung.de), I’m launching a CRISPR-driven crop development project on Tropaeolum tuberosum—an underutilized Andean tuber with big potential! 🌱🔬

NOT SPAM. But I was reported and nothing I can do. So this account will be inactive: find me on LinkedIn, the only platform working well.
At least the bots can flourish here. Sigh.
