Prof. Bailey-Serres Receives Two Major Recognitions

Prof. Julia Bailey-Serres, Distinguished Professor of Botany and Plant Sciences and ETOX faculty member, has recently been selected for two major recognitions.  She has been selected by the American Society of Plant Biologists for its 2024 Charles Reid Barnes Life Membership Award, an award for meritorious work in plant biology which provides a life membership in the Society. 

In addition, she has been selected as the 2024 Faculty Research Lecturer at UC Riverside.  This recognition, given to member of the UCR Academic Senate who has made a distinguished record in research, allows the recipient to deliver a lecture to the Academic Senate. It is considered among the highest recognitions given to UCR faculty.  Prof. Bailey-Serres will be presenting her lecture, "Harvesting Genetic Diversity for Resilient Rice" on May 6, 2024 at 2 pm at the Alumni and Visitors Center.  Those interested in attending should RSVP by May 1.  

Our congratulations to Julia for these recent recognitions.
