Our People

Our team is assembled to conduct and deliver the highest quality research for the benefit of New Zealand. We harness the power of teamwork, valuing diversity in thinking and approach.

From July 2025, the Platform will be migrating to a new structure as the research programme has been extended from seven to 14 years.

We thank you for your patience while information and bios of our team are updated. The coming changes will also reflect that GNS Science has merged with NIWA to form Earth Sciences New Zealand, and that AgResearch, Manaaki Whenua – Landcare Research, Plant & Food Research and Scion have merged to form the Bioeconomy Science Institute.
