Overview
Background
Dr Hannah Robinson is an Industry Research Fellow within the Queensland Alliance for Agriculture and Food Innovation (QAAFI) at The University of Queensland. In this role, Hannah spends half of her time as a researcher focused on advanced crop genomics and associated technologies and the other half within InterGrain, a private plant breeding company, as their genomic scientist. Prior to this, Hannah led the early generation barley breeding program at InterGrain. Her research interests are motivated by industry impact with the overarching aim of increasing genetic gain for the Australian agricultural industry through novel insights into the genetic basis of quantitative traits and the development of new breeding technologies. Hannah is passionate about teaching and mentoring along with sharing her industry experience and currently works with 11 students and early career researchers.
