My major responsibility is teaching the introductory Plant Breeding course, PB403, entitled: Genetic Improvement of Crop Plants. In addition, I have responsibility for developing the curriculum for Cornell's Transnational Learning Program for the Department of Plant Breeding and Genetics. This involves the development of workshops, short courses and full MSc/PHD training curricula for training plant breeders in traditional breeding methods and application of new molecular technologies to applied breeding programs. Currently, we have cooperative programs with ACCI, University of KwaZulu Natal, South Africa, WACCI, University of Ghana, Legon and the CAB in Thailand. I currently serve 50% time as an Associate Director for WACCI.
