ABOUT AMANDEEP KAUR DHALIWAL

Designing crops for tomorrow with data, purpose, and precision.”As a Senior Product Design Scientist at Bayer and a Ph.D-trained plant geneticist, I bring over 15 years of global research and industry experience in designing climate-smart, high-performance crops. My work lies at the intersection of genomics, quantitative genetics, and product development—where I lead the design of improved Canola germplasm using genomic, phenomic, and environmental insights to accelerate trait delivery and market impact.I’ve led million-dollar+ federally funded projects (NSF-STTR/SBIR), built and scaled a molecular breeding lab at an agri-biotech startup, and contributed to innovations in wheat, legumes, hazelnut, and elm through genome assembly, trait discovery, and precision breeding. My scientific journey has taken me from lab benches to field trials, from coding complex pipelines to mentoring young scientists, and from regional grower meetings to international scientific journals.I’m known for fostering collaboration across field testing, data science, and breeding teams across North America and Europe delivering insights that move the needle. I’ve trained over 20 emerging researchers, reviewed for top journals, and co-invented a novel dwarfing gene system to boost yield under stress—because science must be both rigorous and relevant.I thrive on challenges that require deep domain knowledge, cross-functional agility, and bold thinking. If you’re solving big problems in agriculture, biotech, or sustainable food systems—I’d love to connect and collaborate.
