Professor Stephen Bornemann
I lead the training of postgraduate researchers at TSL. I coordinate and help deliver face-to-face and online activities with pre-doctoral interns through to early career researchers. New developments will include an MSc in Global Plant Protection and an associated massive open online course (MOOC) in Global Challenges in Plant Pathology.
