| Date | 15 May 2008 |
| Description | Certificate of Candidate for Election to the Fellowship |
| Citation | Chris Lamb has made major contributions to our understanding of the molecular basis of plant defence. His efforts have led to discoveries such as how cell wall composition influences microbial entry, which plant genes are rapidly induced upon infection and the role of reactive oxygen and nitrogen intermediates in plant defence. His genetic studies have also defined a novel component involved in systemic defence signalling. He has also made very significant contributions to UK plant and microbial science as director of the John Innes Centre. |
