John Innes Horticultural Institution
The John Innes Horticultural Institution, later known as the John Innes Centre (JIC), is a renowned independent research and training institution specializing in plant and microbial science. Established in 1910 with funds bequeathed by John Innes, a merchant and philanthropist, the institution has played a pivotal role in advancing horticultural and agricultural research.
Initially located in Merton Park, Surrey (now London Borough of Merton), the John Innes Horticultural Institution moved to Bayfordbury, Hertfordshire in 1945, and finally settled in its present site in Norwich, Norfolk in 1967. Throughout its history, the institution has been dedicated to scientific excellence and has contributed significantly to the understanding of plant biology and genetics.
Notable staff and alumni associated with the institution include prominent scientists such as Florence Margaret Durham, Janaki Ammal, J. B. S. Haldane, and C.D. Darlington.
