Sarayu Manoj is a research assistant situated within the Department of Plant Sciences. Having completed an MSc in Environmental Economics and Climate Change from the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) in 2023, her expertise revolves around exploring the nexus between economics and climate change mitigation. Her research pursuits primarily center on life-cycle analyses and the economic dimensions associated with agricultural greenhouse gas emissions.

Dr. Courtney Currier has recently become a Postdoctoral Research Associate in Plant Sciences, collaborating with Dr. Adam Pellegrini and his Disturbance and Ecosystem Function group. This partnership, supported by a European Research Council grant awarded to Dr. Pellegrini, is dedicated to investigating the global-scale impacts of fire and grazing management on soil carbon sequestration in drylands. Dr.

Laurie studied Natural Sciences (Zoology) at Clare College, Cambridge, before taking a PhD in freshwater ecology at the University of Exeter.

I obtained a Bachelor's degree with Honors (Ecology and Environmental Sciences) at the Australian National University. My Honors research is a meta-analysis to explore the biodiversity and ecosystem services provided by native forests restored by multiple approaches. Prior to my Ph.D.
