Now leading the Danforth Plant Science Center, visionary scientist Dr. Giles Oldroyd is advancing a bold, science-driven vision for how plants can do more: grow food with fewer inputs, strengthen soils, reduce agriculture’s environmental footprint, and unlock innovations that make farming more resilient in the face of extreme weather. At Seeds of Change, he shared what’s possible when discovery moves quickly from the lab to the field—and why it matters now more than ever.
