Elizabete Carmo-Silva<\/strong><\/p>\n

Elizabete is a Lecturer in Plant Sciences for Food Security. Her research aims to understand photosynthetic responses to the environment, with the goal of increasing crop yields. She is particularly fascinated by the regulation of Rubisco by its catalytic chaperone, Rubisco activase.<\/p>\n

Doug Orr<\/strong><\/p>\n

Doug is a Senior Research Associate in the Photosynthesis Group at Lancaster. His interest is in the activity, regulation and synthesis of the central carbon fixing enzyme Rubisco. He is working on Rubisco\u00a0 regulation in cowpea, and the synthesis of cyanobacterial micro-compartments in tobacco.<\/p>\n
