Louise F Thatcher

Dr Thatcher is Team Leader of Microbial Technologies at CSIRO Agriculture and Food, a dynamic and collaborative team focused on the synergic use and establishment of innovative technologies for the discovery, development, deployment and uptake of beneficial microbes and microbial-derived products for crop protection, plant health and sustainable production. From microbe(biome) to natural products. The team focuses on both applied research to deliver industry specific outcomes, as well as basic strategic research to develop novel approaches for enhancing the durability and the efficacy of microbial biological control agents and their biopesticide molecules, and how we can integrate these into current and future farming practics. These research approaches involve a broad range of disciplines from comparative -omics, analytical chemistry, microbial engineering and fermentation systems, plant genetics, plant pathology, and field trial evaluation over multi-environments.
