Lu Kuan-jen
Lu Kuan-jen is a prominent researcher at Academia Sinica in Taiwan, known for her groundbreaking work in genetic engineering of plants. She led a study that developed a genetically modified thale cress plant capable of capturing 50% more carbon dioxide and producing significantly higher seed yields. Lu has referred to these enhanced plants as 'magic plants' due to their accelerated growth and increased biomass, which could play a crucial role in addressing global food security and carbon emission challenges.
