Originally from Perth, Chris completed an honours degree in science before heading east where he completed a PhD at the University of New England.
His work has focused mainly on agriculture but he jumped at the opportunity to take up the administrative role with the CSIRO in Darwin.
Chris talks about what the CSIRO is doing in the Territory including work on water conservation, solar and agriculture. He also confirms some of the things the CSIRO is famous for, including inventing WI-FI and Mortein.
