This week is National Science Week - a chance to recognise all those involved in cotton science. Cotton is grown based on the knowledge, experience and expertise of hundreds of scientists and growers, who collectively make Australian cotton world-leading.
In the Spring 2026 edition of Spotlight, read Dr Georgina Pengilley's inaugural Spotlight welcome, as she steps into the role as CRDC's Managing Director. Across this edition you can read about the Australian Cotton Conference, learn more about the innovators supported through CRDC's Innovation Call, and the emerging growers and researchers helping shape the future of Australian cotton.
