Project Overview

The DiSTAP programme addresses deep problems in food production in Singapore and the world by developing a suite of impactful and novel analytical, genetic and biosynthetic technologies. As part of the DiSTAP program we will develop new sensors for crop management and deepen our understanding of plant biology. DiSTAP is one of the five Interdisciplinary Research Groups (IRGs) of the Singapore-MIT Alliance for Research and Technology (SMART). See our recent publication in Nature Plants (2020) for a detailed vision of the research programme.
