    He was Head of UMIST's Biomolecular Sciences during the two years leading up to the formation of The University of Manchester, and was a member of various Project Unity committee and working groups.

    He is currently a member of the NERC Peer Review College and Science-Based Archaeology Strategy Group, and is a past member of NERC Science and Technology Board and Science Innovation Strategy Board.He has considerable experience on grants and fellowships committees, and has recently chaired the NERC Services Review Group.

    Professor Brown has been active in biomolecular archaeology since 1989 with grants totalling more than £2 million for work on the origins and spread of agriculture, and for studies of kinship and palaeodisease in the Bronze Age.

    Terry has a strong commitment to the public understanding of science and has given talks to community groups such as Women's Institutes.

    "The entire culture of South America changed when the Europeans arrived in the 15th century - everything from the language to the whole way of life," explained Professor Terry Brown, who headed the research in the Faculty of Life Sciences.

    "Maize is the staple food crop of the region but prior to colonisation it also had a ritual significance - the indigenous people were amazed by maize and even worshipped it.

    "Given the immense changes that took place in South America following the arrival of the Europeans it is surprising that this crop has remained unaltered for hundreds of years."

    Professor Brown's research partner, Dr Veronica Lia from the Universidad de Buenos Aires, added: This is the first time that archaeological remains from Argentina have been used in ancient DNA studies.
    ...
    Using the new facilities in the Manchester Interdisciplinary Biocentre - a cross-faculty institute at the University - Professor Brown is now examining the DNA of ancient maize from Peru, up to 6,000 years old, to determine if these much older specimens are also similar to modern crops.

    Surprisingly, they found both ancient and modern samples of the crop were genetically almost identical indicating that modern European influence has not been as great as previously thought.

    NIAB is part of an interdisciplinary team from across the UK, led by Prof Terry Brown of The University of Manchester, that is investigating how the Neolithic peoples of Europe began to successfully cultivate primitive barley and wheat crops thousands of years ago.

    First off was Terry Brown (University of Manchester), who has used ancient DNA preserved in desiccated maize cobs to trace the development and spread of maize cultivation in South America.Remarkably, he has also been able to show that present-day Andean maize land-races are directly descended from the archaeological specimens.
