New recruit, Dr Candy Taylor, explains how she'll be tackling auxinic herbicide resistance research

AHRI Snapshots

On today’s AHRI Snapshots, we’re catching up with our newest AHRI team member, Dr Candy Taylor!

Candy has recently joined the team as a Research Associate. She’s going to be looking at understanding auxinic herbicide resistance dynamics.

This work is being supported by an ARC Linkage grant, with additional investment from Nufarm. This was successfully secured by AHRI’s Dr Danica Goggin and former AHRI Director Professor Stephen Powles.

So, for a little bit of background on Candy, she obtained her PhD in 2019 in the area of plant genetics and pre-breeding here at UWA and most recently worked as a UWA Graduate Research Assistant with Wallace Cowling and Janine Croser.
We're excited to have her on the team! Take a listen to learn more.
