Cynara Romero

Senior Scientist at Resurrect Bio

I am a research scientist with a background in molecular biology and plant-pathogen interactions. I completed a PhD mapping resistance genes in barley, before moving to the UK to join the 2Blades group at TSL, where I worked on identifying new sources of resistance to soybean rust. I later moved to industry, having worked for Tropic for the past two years, leading technology projects in gene editing in banana. I’ve recently joined Resurrect Bio as a Senior Scientist, to lead the development and scaling of a pest/pathogen interaction assay platform during my stay at TSL.
