Academic career edit

After a 1983 PhD titled 'Hybridization of Aspergillus species' at the University of Nottingham, Bradshaw moved to the Massey University, rising to full professor in 2016.[1][2]

Bradshaw's best-known work involved the identification of the oomycete Phytophthora agathadicida as the cause of Kauri dieback.[3][4][5][6][7][8]
