The knowledge gained from these studies is being used to explore the potential for metabolic engineering of high value products in plants and algae, and other biotechnological uses of algae, such as for biodiesel production. In parallel, studies of symbiotic interactions between algae and bacteria are providing insights into algal communities in natural ecosystems, and in dense cultures necessary for industrial cultivation.[10]}} Research in Smith's group is also investigating the potential for exploitation of algae for carbon capture and storage, algae fuel and algaculture.[11][12][13] Smith's research has been funded by the European Union,[14] the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council, the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council, the Economic and Social Research Council and the Natural Environment Research Council.[15] She serves as a council member of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom of the United Kingdom and as a member of the board of National Institute of Agricultural Botany.[10] Awards and honoursSmith was awarded a Leverhulme Trust Study Abroad Fellowship in 2001 and a best scientific paper award from the Rebeiz Foundation for Basic Research in 2009 for research on Tetrapyrrole profiling in seedlings of the Arabidopsis (rockcress).[16] In 2009 she was awarded an Erskine Fellowship from the University of Canterbury in Christchurch, New Zealand and she became a Fellow of the Royal Society of Biology (FRSB) in 2012.[17] Smith was interviewed by Jim Al-Khalili on The Life Scientific, first broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in {{date|2017|01}}.[18] Personal lifeSmith is married to the computer scientist Andy Hopper with whom she has two children.[1][19] References1. ^1 {{Who's Who | surname = Hopper | othernames = Prof. Andrew | id = U20751 | volume = 1998 | edition = online Oxford University Press|location=Oxford}} {{subscription required}} {{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Smith, Alison Gail}}2. ^{{cite journal|last1=Scott|first1=Stuart A|last2=Davey|first2=Matthew P|last3=Dennis|first3=John S|last4=Horst|first4=Irmtraud|last5=Howe|first5=Christopher J|last6=Lea-Smith|first6=David J|last7=Smith|first7=Alison G|title=Biodiesel from algae: challenges and prospects|journal=Current Opinion in Biotechnology|volume=21|issue=3|year=2010|pages=277–286|pmid= 20399634 |doi=10.1016/j.copbio.2010.03.005}} 3. ^{{cite journal|last1=Croft|first1=Martin T.|last2=Lawrence|first2=Andrew D.|last3=Raux-Deery|first3=Evelyne|last4=Warren|first4=Martin J.|last5=Smith|first5=Alison G.|title=Algae acquire vitamin B12 through a symbiotic relationship with bacteria|journal=Nature|volume=438|issue=7064|year=2005|pages=90–93|pmid= 16267554 |doi=10.1038/nature04056}} 4. ^{{cite journal|last1=Stephenson|first1=Anna L.|last2=Kazamia|first2=Elena|last3=Dennis|first3=John S.|last4=Howe|first4=Christopher J.|last5=Scott|first5=Stuart A.|last6=Smith|first6=Alison G.|title=Life-Cycle Assessment of Potential Algal Biodiesel Production in the United Kingdom: A Comparison of Raceways and Air-Lift Tubular Bioreactors|journal=Energy & Fuels|volume=24|issue=7|year=2010|pages=4062–4077|doi=10.1021/ef1003123}} 5. ^{{cite journal|last1=Ciulli|first1=Alessio|last2=Williams|first2=Glyn|last3=Smith|first3=Alison G.|last4=Blundell|first4=Tom L.|authorlink4=Tom Blundell|last5=Abell|first5=Chris|authorlink5=Chris Abell|title=Probing Hot Spots at Protein−Ligand Binding Sites: A Fragment-Based Approach Using Biophysical Methods|journal=Journal of Medicinal Chemistry|volume=49|issue=16|year=2006|pages=4992–5000|pmid= 16884311 |doi=10.1021/jm060490r}} 6. ^Alison Gail Smith's {{ORCID|0000-0001-6511-5704}} 7. ^{{cite thesis |degree=PhD |first=Alison Gail|last=Smith |title=Chlorosis induction in haloblight disease of bean: a biochemical study |website=ulmss-newton.lib.cam.ac.uk|publisher=University of Cambridge |year=1981 |url=http://ulmss-newton.lib.cam.ac.uk/vwebv/holdingsInfo?bibId=13899}} 8. ^{{Scopus|7406758669}} 9. ^{{GoogleScholar|MYRcFboAAAAJ}} 10. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=http://data.plantsci.cam.ac.uk/PlantMet/index.php/group-members/alison-smith/|title=Plant Metabolism at the University of Cambridge|publisher=University of Cambridge|author=Anon|year=2015}} 11. ^{{cite journal|last1=Grant|first1=Matthew AA|last2=Kazamia|first2=Elena|last3=Cicuta|first3=Pietro|last4=Smith|first4=Alison G|title=Direct exchange of vitamin B12 is demonstrated by modelling the growth dynamics of algal–bacterial cocultures|journal=The ISME Journal|volume=8|issue=7|year=2014|pages=1418–1427|doi=10.1038/ismej.2014.9|pmc=4069406|pmid= 24522262}} 12. ^{{cite journal|last1=Davey|first1=M.
