Professor of Plant Development Jane Langdale has been named one of five ‘Oxford Changemakers’ in 'In Bloom: How Plants Changed Our World', the Ashmolean’s forthcoming exhibition exploring the influence of plants on exploration, trade, art, and science.
The exhibition brings together historic collections, contemporary research, and newly commissioned work, placing modern plant science in dialogue with centuries of botanical discovery.
Professor Langdale’s research looks firmly to the future: pushing the boundaries of plant developmental biology to help breed and engineer crops capable of adapting to climate change.
'In Bloom: How Plants Changed Our World' runs at the Ashmolean Museum from 19 March until 16 August 2026.

This #WorldBookDay, we’re celebrating stories that travel.
Our Library team has selected their favourite books in translation: these are works that cross borders, languages, and generations. It’s a fitting focus for Queen’s, which is home to the Queen’s Translation Exchange. QTE sees translation not simply as the conversion of words, but as an act of cultural exchange.
Travel north with Tove Jansson’s The Summer Book (trans. Thomas Teal), a tender meditation on childhood and loss set on a Finnish island.
Encounter the raw clarity of Tove Ditlevsen’s Copenhagen Trilogy (trans. Tiina Nunnally & Michael Favala Goldman), recently named one of the best books of the 21st century.
Laugh at the absurdities of bureaucracy in Hašek’s The Good Soldier Švejk (trans. Cecil Parrott) and lose yourself in Umberto Eco’s intricate intellectual thriller Foucault’s Pendulum (trans. William Weaver).

Sixth-year medical student Karthik Saravanan has broken three University powerlifting records at Varsity and qualified for BUCS.
All of this came three days after final-year medicine exams.
“I dug deep… and smashed the 220kg deadlift on my final attempt.”
Balancing clinical placements, exams, and heavy training blocks is not straightforward. Karthik trains three times a week alongside his degree, often in evening and weekend sessions, and speaks candidly about managing fatigue, setbacks, and sleep debt in the run-up to the competition.
From Cuppers to record-holder, his progression reflects both individual discipline and the strength of Oxford’s student sports community.

As the first recipient of the Old Member-funded Accomplishment Scholarship funded by The Accomplishment Trust, Isaac is already demonstrating the impact of postgraduate support at Queen’s.
Reading for a Master’s in History, Isaac is researching student culture in late Victorian Oxford, using student magazines to uncover how earlier generations shaped their place within the University.
“Without this support I would not have been able to accept my offer… Having the costs of my course met has enabled me to commit myself completely to my studies.”
From archival research to conversations within a close-knit graduate community, Isaac reflects on the freedom the scholarship has made possible, and on why independent research matters.
