About Us

Wild Bioscience was founded in 2021 by Ross Hendron (now CEO) and Steve Kelly, who remains a Professor of Plant Sciences at the University of Oxford.

Our mission is to tackle the challenges of global food security and climate change by pioneering a revolutionary approach to crop improvement. Wild plants thrive in every environment on Earth, and our aim is to make crops more productive and climate resilient by integrating expertise in evolution, machine learning, and plant physiology.

To quote Ross: “We’re facing two planetary scale challenges – how are we going to produce more crops to feed an increasingly hungry planet, and how are we going to decarbonise our atmosphere?” We believe our approach will allow us to grow more food with less resources, resulting in a healthier, more sustainable, and wilder planet.
