at Imperial College of Science and Technology, University of London,
UK. Graduated with 1st Class Honours in Botany and Plant Technology
in 1970; PhD in Plant Ecology 1974. Formerly Independent Research

Research Group in the School of Botany at The University of Melbourne.
The Group is involved in restoration and revegetation projects
of mineral wastes, remediation of contaminated land and phytocapping
of landfill sites, in addition to carrying out fundamental research

Career
Summary
Professor
Baker's research career has centred on the interactions of plants
with soils and sediments contaminated with heavy metals, either
naturally through mineralization, or as a result of anthropogenic
pollution. Long-term research has focused on ecological and physiological
aspects of heavy metal tolerance, toxicity and uptake in plants,
and in particular the mechanisms of metal accumulation and tolerance
in temperate and tropical species of metallophytes. Major themes
are the ecology of nickel-hyperaccumulating species from ultramafic
soils, zinc and cadmium hyperaccumulation, evolution and development
of metallophyte floras. These lines of research, and in his capacity
as an Associate Principal Environmental Scientist and Member of
the Management Committee of the University of Sheffield's Ecological
Consultancy, ECUS Ltd, led him into a number of applied fields
including geobotanical and biogeochemical techniques for mineral
exploration and reconnaissance, revegetation of toxic metalliferous
wastes, pollution biomonitoring, problems of environmental health
arising from trace element contamination of the environment, removal
and stabilization of metals and metalloids from contaminated land
and sediments using biological approaches (bio- and phytoremediation),
biomining and development of strategies for the conservation of
biodiversity at mining sites.
In
addition to extensive work experience in Europe, Australasia and
the USA, he has worked in many developing countries including
The Philippines, Thailand, New Caledonia, Sri Lanka, PR China,
Democratic Republic of Congo (Zaïre), Brazil, Costa Rica,
Cuba, Chile and Mexico. He is the author of more than 136 original
scientific papers and articles, 23 chapters in books and 175 conference
abstracts.
Professor
Baker has served on the General Council of the British Ecological
Society and the European Council of the Society for Environmental
Geochemistry and Health. He was a member of the NERC UK Scientific
Advisory Committee on Environmental Toxicology and Working Group
2 (Environmental Toxicology) of the European Science Foundation.
From 1998-2000 he was Co-Chair of Working Group 2 (Toxic Metals)
of the EU COST Action 837 - Plant Biotechnology for the Removal
of Organic Pollutants and Toxic Metals from Wastewaters and Contaminated
Sites. Professor Baker is now an invited Associate EU Member of
the 2005 EU COST Action 859 - Phytotechnologies to Promote Sustainable
Land Use and Food Safety. He is currently Editor-in-Chief (Inorganic
Contaminants) of the International Journal of Phytoremediation,
and Member of the Editorial Advisory Boards of the journals Land
Contamination and Reclamation, Environment International, Journal
of Plant Interactions, Chemosphere, Environmental Geochemistry
and Health, Environmental Pollution, Agrochimica and the Journal
of Environmental Sciences (China).
In
2006 Professor Baker was appointed to the Australian Department
of Education, Science and Training Australia-India Research Fund
Advisory Panel as an Expert Scientist in the field of bioremediation.
