Dr. Philipp Bayer finished his PhD at the University of Queensland where he worked on novel crop genotyping techniques applied in canola and wheat. He then moved to the University of Western Australia where he has been central in establishing pangenome pipelines in a variety of crops from Brassica to soybean and wheat. As a Forrest Fellow he now works on the genomics of native Australian species, canola and other Brassicaceae, soybean, and other crops.
