Hale works in a highly interdisciplinary field where she explores how agricultural research processes and outputs influence or contribute to social inclusion and gender equality. Hale is also a part of several initiatives, such as Feed […]
Scientific illustration plays a crucial role in plant sciences as it highlights the intricate details of plant structures and their biological processes. While photographs and microscopy images are great at capturing moments, scientific illustrations act as bridges between researchers and the general public, making complex scientific concepts more accessible. Therefore, these visuals are invaluable tools […]
The pursuit of research in any field demands profound passion, enthusiasm, curiosity, and the fortitude to embrace risks. Consequently, the research environment and the availability of resources play pivotal roles in nurturing researchers’ motivation and enhancing the quality of their outputs. Nevertheless, researchers often grapple with significant constraints in the form of research grants and […]
