Christine Foyer is Professor of Plant Sciences at the University of Birmingham. She is a Member of the Environmental Sustainability Board of the FERRERO group and the Editor in Chief of Plant, Cell and Environment and Food and Energy Security. Christine has over 450 published papers and ranked as a Highly Cited Researcher™ list from Clarivate™. She is listed in the 2023 Edition of our Ranking of Top 1000 Female Scientists in the World. Ranked 15 in United Kingdom, and 192 in the world. She is ranked 7th in the list of the world's Best Scientists in Plant Sciences.  (World's Best Plant Science and Agronomy Scientists: H-Index Plant Science and Agronomy Science Ranking 2024 | Research.com). Christine is an expert in plant metabolism and its regulation under optimal and stress conditions. Her lab focuses on the role of reduction/oxidation (redox) processes and signals regulate plant growth and stress tolerance, studying how primary processes (photosynthesis respiration) alter the redox status of cells and associated phytohormone signalling under optimal and stress conditions. Using model (Arabidopsis) as well as crop plants (wheat, barley, maize soybean and tomato) the lab investigates plant responses to abiotic (drought, heat, chilling, high light) and biotic (aphids) stresses.
