Scientists developing a single-cell sequencing pipeline at Earlham Institute have revealed previously unknown diversity from a group of free-living protists closely related to the parasites that cause sleeping sickness.

Researchers at the Earlham Institute, the University of Edinburgh and Heriot-Watt University have analysed gut cells to understand the drivers behind fibrosis (scarring), a common complication in Crohn’s Disease affecting 10-20% of patients.

A new study in the journal PNAS addresses longstanding questions in biology: Can plants sense the environment directly in their developing seeds, or is seasonal information acquired by their parents somehow passed down to the seed?

The Earlham Institute and Natural History Museum, London have today announced a joint venture spin-out company Agnos Biosciences™ and its cutting-edge rapid DNA air sequencing technology, AirSeq™, to transform biological threat detection.

Scientists at the Earlham Institute and the John Innes Centre are pioneering powerful single-cell visualisation techniques that could unlock higher yields of global wheat.

Two new appointments have been made to the Earlham Institute Board of Trustees, with Professor Fiona Lettice and Professor Nick Thomson taking up the roles at the Norwich-based research institute in 2025.
