BlightSense: Detecting Late Blight before it infects

  • December 6, 2016
  • 12:34 pm

Laurie Bell, University of Cambridge

Laurie Bell, University of Cambridge

Dr Laurence Bell is a Research Associate at the Department of Chemical Engineering and Biotech, University of Cambridge.

Laurie is involved with ‘BlightSense’; the development of a rapid biosensor system for in-field early detection of potato blight. The biosensor will identify the presence of the disease-causing pathogen. Greater yield and quality will be attained as a result of improved disease control, reducing crop waste and fungicide costs, leading to greater yield and quality.
