Microbial diseases pose significant threats to agriculture, jeopardizing food security by reducing yields and damaging crops. Understanding how plants sense and respond to pathogens while maintaining growth is crucial. Signal transduction is governed by protein kinases that phosphorylate targets to regulate their activity, localization, and stability. Our research aims to unravel plant immune signaling, to […]

This project aims to improve the monitoring and assessment of critical infrastructure using machine learning and satellite technology. By integrating machine learning techniques, we aim to improve the accuracy of detecting structural and geotechnical deterioration in public infrastructure, such as marine port wharves and airport runways. Led by experts from the NRC’s Construction Research Centre […]
