POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCHER

Christophe Gaillochet is a plant scientist specialising in gene editing and crop transformation with over 10 years of experience. He is enthusiastic about optimizing genome editing tools and techniques.

“I am driven by a strong interest in cutting-edge technologies applied to plant biology and agriculture. After conducting research in Germany and in the US, I now work as a postdoctoral researcher at the VIB in Belgium to optimize genome engineering tools. I firmly believe that new genome editing technologies offer tremendous opportunities for accelerated plant breeding in a wide range of crops.”
