Dr. Davide Gerna visited the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, in January 2022, to work on his research project "Targeting the structural properties of bread wheat seeds to understand their fate during early germination".
Dr. Gerna's research activities in collaboration with the host group "Seed and Stress Biology" were integrated in the frame of a broader Early-Stage-Funding Project.
Additionally, he held a guest lecture with the title "Does oxygen affect seed ageing mechanisms? A matter of cytoplasmic physical state", where he summarised a recently published paper. Due to the pandemic, the live lecture was held with restricted in-presence-audience. Nonetheless, Dr. Gerna stated that a lively discussion on current and future collaborations followed.
