PhD Research

The herbarium forms the resource base for extensive PhD research. It provides source material for primary research, arranges and houses loans for research projects, and ultimately hosts the voucher specimens and field collections of PhD researchers as well as having a library of key reference material in addition to that of the University main library.

There are currently over 20 UK and overseas PhD students whose work is based around the herbarium.
