Dr Peter Gould

Crop Innovation Manager – Institute of Sustainability and Food Innovation (IoSFI) 

Peter completed BSc (Hons) in Biochemistry and Biotechnology at the University of Manchester, and followed this with his PhD also at University of Manchester. Peter is a passionate Plant Biologist with interests in food security and sustainability. 

Peter then worked at University of Liverpool and University of Lancaster pursuing his interests in plant biology and biological clocks. Peters main interests are understanding how the biological clock buffered itself to changing external temperatures with the link with global warming and food security. Most of this work was based on imaging (microscopy), molecular biology and cell biology. Peters passion for plant biology also has led to him creating a saffron production business based near Delamere Forest in Cheshire.
