Author Information

Professor Kay Yeoman teaches microbiology in the School of Biological Sciences at UEA. She has undertaken research in the use of agricultural waste materials in fermentation media. She has also conducted research in the Rhizobium:legume symbiosis, investigating the uptake of iron. She is keen communicator of science, leads fungal forays and is particularly interested in fungi and their use in industry. Dr Beatrix Fahnert is a microbiologist with a background in medical, industrial and applied microbiology. She has been teaching related subjects at Undergraduate and Postgraduate level for more than 20 years, and is currently an Associate Professor at the School of Life Sciences, University of Lincoln. Beatrix is a member of the European Federation of Biotechnology and the UK Microbiology Society, where she served as Chair-Elect of the Education Division. Dr David Lea-Smith is a lecturer in microbiology at the University of East Anglia. His research is primarily focused on investigating photosynthetic cyanobacteria, specifically understanding their biochemistry and physiology, impact on the environment and potential for biotechnology as a platform for renewable production of industrial and medical compounds. Dr Tom Clarke graduated from UCL in Biochemistry and undertook a PhD at the John Innes centre in Norwich. After a research fellowship at the University of Michigan he joined UEA biological sciences in 2003. His current research involves uncovering how bacteria generate electricity in different environments.
