Thanks @FruitLivery for a fantastic day at the National Fruit Show! 🍎😊 @CTP_FCR
#NIAB PhD Student Magdalena Cobo-Medina was this week awarded the @FruitLivery Student Prize. She received the award in recognition of her work on understanding the genetic basis of dwarfing in apple rootstocks and its effect on root architecture. 👏👏

😍 Beautiful roots 😍 #WomenScienceDay #phdlife #roots
Replying to @MagdaCobo
@MagdaCobo is lifting her stoolbeds and is very excited about finding rooted shoots to study root system architecture in apple rootstocks #WomenScienceDay @NIABEMR @BBSRC

Special thanks to @NACMCiderMakers for hosting a brilliant event at the House of Commons. The students all found it inspiring to chat to producers, cider makers, growers and MP’s about this great industry, and of course to sample the best of UK ciders. @NIABEMR
