Art and science are a nice team in communicating about science. Scientists inspire artists, and the other way around! Here's a nice example: Anna Dumitriu, earlier 'artist in residence' at KeyGene, will talk about faba bean at Norfolk & Norwich festival in May. nnfestival.org.uk/whats-on/art...

We are glad to share some early results of our EU-cofinanced FabaFood breeding program in faba bean, for more plant-based proteins in our diet. Plants with new traits! Shorter internodes - so stronger in the field - and larger beans. Discover the FabaFood story: www.keygene.com/newsitem/fab...
