Wine, Cheese and Biotech

There are almost 400,000 species of plants with a long history full of stories to be unraveled. The lab of Dr. Alex Harkess, Auburn University associate professor and HudsonAlpha faculty investigator, explores the tree of life using genomics tools to learn about those stories and to work towards the production of better crops. Listen in as Dr. Harkess relays his passion for plants.

Be inspired by Dr. David Bick, HudsonAlpha Faculty Investigator and medical director of the Smith Family Clinic for Genomic Medicine on the HudsonAlpha campus, as he shares his vision for bringing genomics research from the lab into the clinic in order to provide better treatments for all patients.
