Catherine Feuillet
Catherine Feuillet (born July 1965) is a French geneticist who is the head of trait research at Bayer CropScience and a co-chair of the International Wheat Genome Sequencing Consortium (IWGSC). In 2008, she and her team successfully published the first mapping of the largest wheat chromosome, 3B and in 2014, they successfully completed mapping 3B's sequencing and published a draft of the entire wheat genome. She has been awarded the Prix Foulon from the French Academy of Science, the gold ''Trophée de la Femme'', was honored as a Chevalier of the Legion of Honour, and received the Jean Dufrenoy Prize from the Académie d'Agriculture of France.
==Biography==
Catherine Feuillet was born in Orleans, approximately 130 km (80 miles) south of Paris, and attained her education as a geneticist and molecular biologist. In 1993, she earned her doctorate at the Paul Sabatier University in Toulouse, France. Between 1994 and 1997, she completed post-doctoral studies at the Federal Institute for Agroecology in Zurich, studying the genomes of wheat and barley. She joined the Institute of Plant Biology at the University of Zurich as a junior group leader and continued her grain research investigating the genes responsible for fungal disease resistance.〔
In 2004, she joined the Institut National de la Recherche Agronomique (National Institute of Agricultural Research) (INRA) in Clermont-Ferrand, France, as the research director of the Genetics, Diversity and Ecophysiology of Cereals Department.〔 In 2005, she joined the International Wheat Genome Sequencing Consortium (IWGSC), an international effort in which she serves as a co-chair whose goal is to sequence the genome of wheat. She was also appointed as the chair of the European Triticeae Genomics Initiative (ETGI) in 2005. In 2008, Feuillet's team published in the journal, ''Science'', the first mapping results of the wheat chromosome 3B,〔 which is the largest of the 21 chromosomes of wheat. That same year, she joined the International Triticeae Mapping Initiative (ITMI) to assist with planning and coordination of research projects. On 24 November, 2009 Feuillet received the Prix Foulon from the French Academy of Sciences〔 for her work in deciphering the genome. That same year, she was also awarded the gold ''Trophée de la Femme'' for her research〔 and then on 10 September 2010, received the insignia of Chevalier of the Legion of Honour from the INRA.〔
In 2011, she joined the Wheat Initiative, created by the G20 countries to improve global wheat production and that same year was awarded a Fellowship by the American Association for the Advancement of Science. Feuillet received the Jean Dufrenoy Prize from the Académie d'Agriculture of France in 2012 and in 2013, she joined Bayer CropScience as head of the Trait Research Department. In 2014, her team at IWGSC successfully completed sequencing wheat chromosome 3B and by utilizing a technique called shotgun sequencing they were able to publish a draft of the entire wheat genome sequence.〔 The draft is only 53% accurate and complete mapping will take approximately two more years, provided funding for the project is attained.〔
