🌱 🚜 Can a grass leaf help solve global food security?
The answer could transform the future of farming.
In the latest episode of ‘Provox’, the Provost speaks to leading plant scientist and Fellow at Queen's Professor Jane Langdale CBE FRS about the quest to engineer rice to photosynthesise more efficiently.
They explore the science behind C4 photosynthesis and why it could help crops use less water and fertiliser whilst producing higher yields. Discover how decades of research might then lead to a solution for one of humanity's greatest challenges: feeding a growing population sustainably.

Queen’s… in 'Harper’s Bazaar' magazine? 👀
Perhaps not where you’d expect to encounter the Queen's College Translation Exchange…but the September issue includes a fascinating piece on the skills linguists bring to the workplace.
💬 QTE founder Charlotte Ryland talks about why learning languages develops far more than the ability to communicate: "it's about how you interpret what people are saying and read between the lines".
These human skills are becoming more valuable, not less, and the feature serves as a reminder that languages belong in conversations far beyond the languages classroom. Watch this space for an exciting development in our graduate offering in this area...

🎉 Congratulations to Queen’s Medical student Danny McAlea, who has been highly commended in the NIHR School for Primary Care Research George Lewith Prize for his essay exploring AI-enabled triage in general practice.
🩺 As AI tools are adopted across healthcare, Danny’s research raises some important questions: is implementation moving faster than the evidence?
His study found a striking contrast between the relatively immature evidence base and the scale of AI implementation, particularly when it comes to understanding how these technologies might affect patients’ access to care.
Can AI triage recognise important red flags? Can it account for the different ways people express medical need? And could digital systems inadvertently make healthcare easier to access for some patients than others? For Danny, these questions underline why clinicians need a voice in the policies shaping the future of healthcare.
🔗 We spoke to Danny about the promise and risks of AI in medicine and how being challenged to question his own reasoning at Queen’s has shaped his approach to medicine and research: ow.ly/Ba6c50ZBPUH

🎉 Congratulations to recent graduate Kieran Agg (Physical and Theoretical Chemistry, 2021) who has won the 2026 Katharine Burr Blodgett Award for his outstanding DPhil research.
🦠 Kieran's research zoomed in to the molecular scale to explore some fascinating properties of liquids. Now at the Ellison Institute of Technology, he’s helping develop next-generation sensing technologies with the potential to improve how diseases are diagnosed.
🔗 From conversations across disciplines, to funding that enabled him to share his research internationally, Kieran reflects on how the Queen’s community and its support shaped his DPhil: www.queens.ox.ac.uk/news/recent-graduate-receives-national-award-for-outstanding-dphil-research/
