For 30 years, Professor John Runions has used microscopes to explore myriad miniature realms. His research into how cells function reveals the hidden beauty of the natural world in striking detail.

Now we are faced with the problem of feeding an ever-growing world population. John’s research is shedding light on how plants perceive pathogen threats so that we are better able to ensure a food supply for future generations.

John is Professor in the Department of Biological and Medical Sciences at Oxford Brookes University.
