Starting with the first European explorers collecting and naming species, our science has evolved to include plant pathology, genetics, ecology and seed science.
Our world leading research and collections advance fundamental knowledge of plants and drive effective conservation.
Our science team bring together a range of disciplines and specialisations, they work with industry and governments, and collaborate with a national and global network to produce world class research.
The Garden’s scientists are passionate about their work and committed to continuing the work of their predecessors, there is still much to learn about the natural world.
