Zoom into Soil: What’s coming up for the British Society of Soil Science

In this webinar, President, Prof. Paul Hallett, and President-Elect, Dr. Lizzie Sagoo discuss what's coming up for BSSS and what members and partners can look forward to. Prof. Paul Hallett is President of the British Society of Soil Science and Professor in Soil Physics at the University of Aberdeen. He is a Soil Physicist working on solutions to food and environmental security, mainly focussed on the interactions between plants, microorganisms and the physical behaviour of soil. Paul coordinates soil science teaching to senior undergraduate and postgraduate students at the University of Aberdeen. Before joining the University of Aberdeen in 2013 as Professor in Soil Physics, he was Theme Lead of Sustainable Production Systems at the James Hutton Institute, and the Head of the Plant-Soil Interface group at its predecessor, the Scottish Crop Research Institute where he worked since 1997. Dr Lizzie Sagoo is BSSS President-Elect and Director at ADAS. She joined ADAS in 2003 following a PhD on the recycling of biosolids to short rotation willow coppice at the University of Leeds. Lizzie’s research at ADAS focusses on agricultural soil science, including on soil quality, nutrient management, recycling organic materials to land, diffuse pollution of the air and water environments from agriculture, and precision farming techniques to improve soil and nutrient management. Lizzie is also a STEM ambassador and has engaged with primary, secondary and sixth form college students on soil science education and careers in soil science. The British Society of Soil Science is an established international membership organisation and charity committed to the study of soil in its widest aspects. https://soils.org.uk/
