Professor Ke Li will join the Earlham Institute in September as a new Research Group Leader in Artificial Intelligence (AI) for Biology.

The National Research Organisations (NRO) Group officially launches today (Thursday 9 July) at Royal Academy of Sciences, London. A first of its kind collective for the UK, the NRO brings together more than 100 leaders from government, research, academia, industry and funding organisations, marking a new chapter for the UK's research landscape.

The discovery, sharing, and reuse of data and tools that underpin data-driven life sciences is set to be rolled out at a national scale thanks to a £4 million project led by The University of Manchester with partners at Earlham Institute and Seqera.

Earlham Institute and Syngenta launch a new Innovate UK-funded project applying AI models to identify novel herbicide targets and improve management of resistance in agricultural weeds.

A new economic report analysing the financial impact of sequencing all complex life in the UK and Ireland has shown a huge return on investment and expected growth in scientific research.

Scientists developing a single-cell sequencing pipeline at Earlham Institute have revealed previously unknown diversity from a group of free-living protists closely related to the parasites that cause sleeping sickness.

Researchers at the Earlham Institute, the University of Edinburgh and Heriot-Watt University have analysed gut cells to understand the drivers behind fibrosis (scarring), a common complication in Crohn’s Disease affecting 10-20% of patients.

A new study in the journal PNAS addresses longstanding questions in biology: Can plants sense the environment directly in their developing seeds, or is seasonal information acquired by their parents somehow passed down to the seed?
