Senior🎓
Top SchoolJim Rowe is a Royal Society University Research Fellow and plant development biologist with nine years of experience probing how environmental signals shape growth through hormone dynamics. Based at the University of Sheffield after a research tenure at the Sainsbury Laboratory, he develops and deploys high-affinity ABA biosensors (ABACUS2) and user-friendly image analysis tools (FRETENATOR) to measure hormone localisation and dynamics at cellular resolution in living plants. His work revealed systemic shoot–root ABA signalling that maintains root growth under foliar drying, linking phloem transport to whole-plant water status. Jim combines quantitative imaging, Python/ImageJ tool development, biosensors and hardware prototyping (3D printing, microcontrollers) to study plant physiology and water use, bringing an unusually integrated experimental and computational skill set to plant stress biology.
