Ümit Barış Kutman, Gebze Teknik Üniversitesi Biyoteknoloji Enstitüsü’nde Dr. Öğretim Üyesidir; Bitki Biyoteknolojisi, Fizyolojisi ve Besleme Laboratuvarı’nı yönetir, 2018’den bu yana Enstitü Müdür Yardımcılığı, 2023’ten bu yana da Biyoteknoloji Anabilim Dalı Başkanlığı ve program koordinatörlüğü görevlerini yürütür.
Lisansını (2005) ve doktorasını (2010) Sabancı Üniversitesi Biyoloji Bilimleri ve Biyomühendislik programında tamamladı; İsmail Çakmak danışmanlığında yürüttüğü ve buğdayda azot ile çinko beslenmesi arasındaki etkileşimi konu alan doktora çalışması biyofortifikasyon literatüründe yaygın olarak atıf alır. Doktora sonrası araştırmalarını Sabancı Üniversitesi’nde (2010-2013) ve University of California, Davis’te (2013-2015) sürdürdü; 2015-2017 arasında Konya Gıda ve Tarım Üniversitesi’nde öğretim üyesi olarak çalıştı ve 2017’de GTÜ’ye katıldı. UC Davis’te Kaliforniya Badem Kurulu’nun (Almond Board of California) desteklediği iki projede bademde tuzluluk stresinin fizyolojisi üzerine çalıştı (2014-2016); tuzluluk, nitrat yıkanması ve toprak tuzlanmasını sınırlayan sulama stratejileri üzerine olan ikincisinin yürütücüsüydü.
Araştırmaları bitkilerin mineral beslenmesini, çinko ile azot etkileşimlerini, bitkilerin biyofortifikasyonunu, abiyotik stres toleransını, mikoriza ve kök endofitlerini kapsar. Laboratuvar son yıllarda bitki beslemenin verim ve kalitenin ana kaldıracı olduğu topraksız ve dikey tarım alanında da çalışmaktadır.
