Biography

Sarah Trinder is a Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Warwick in the School of Life Sciences, focusing on the UK Vegetable Genebank project. Her research aims to manage and conserve a collection of approximately 14,000 vegetable seed accessions, which includes both cultivated varieties and wild relatives. By ensuring the genetic diversity of these crops is available for research and breeding, her work addresses the challenges posed by climate change and emerging pests. Sarah's research interests include plant evolution and genetics, with a specific focus on utilizing long-term collections for experiments. She has been involved in analyzing Genotype-By-Sequencing data to understand intra-population diversity in carrots and is dedicated to enhancing the visibility of the UKVGB's contributions to science. Sarah holds a PhD from the University of Liverpool, where her research centered on genetic variation in plant populations and their responses to environmental changes. She also completed her BSc with honors in Biology at the University of York.
