Professor Keith Lindsey holds a Chair in the Department of Biosciences at Durham University. His research focuses on plant developmental biology, particularly molecular control mechanisms in embryogenesis and root development. He leads collaborative projects with institutions like Huazhong Agricultural University (China) as a Visiting Professor. Lindsey's work integrates functional genomics and predictive mathematical modeling to study gene-hormone signaling networks. He has served on editorial boards (e.g., New Phytologist) and advisory committees (e.g., BBSRC Council, Defra ACRE).
- Education: Botany degree from Oxford University; PhD from Edinburgh University
Research interests include plant molecular genetics, hormonal crosstalk, and cotton genetics. His lab employs techniques like laser-capture microdissection and CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing. Key collaborations involve cotton genetics with Prof. Xianlong Zhang and root biology with Prof. Chunli Chen. Recent work addresses drought resistance, ethylene signaling, and cotton fiber development.
Publications emphasize hormonal interactions, root architecture modeling, and stress biology. Advises six current PhD students (listed in detail). Active in international research networks and biotechnology applications.
