Dear AgBioData community members,
The next AG2PI Field Day is on Wednesday, March 16 from 10:30 AM to 12:00 PM (Central Time, UTC-5). This event will feature the USDA NIFA national program leaders for the agricultural genome to phenome initiative, Frank Siewerdt and Christian Tobias. Dr. Siewerdt will describe some of the current funding opportunities in animal breeding offered by NIFA while Dr. Tobias will describe opportunities in plant breeding. Each will also discuss what makes for a good proposal and provide some "best practices" for submitting proposals in these spaces.
We invite you to register for this Zoom event at https://tinyurl.com/AG2PI-FD16, where you will also find additional information. Upon registration, you will receive a confirmation email with information about joining the meeting. If you are unable to attend the live session, then you will be able to find a recording at ag2pi.org/<https://www.ag2pi.org/>, at a later date. Please note: you do not need to register to view the recording; it is readily available on the AG2PI website soon after the close of the event (generally within 24 hours).
Please share this message and attached flyer with colleagues at your institution.
Kind regards,
Nicole

Dear AgBioData community members,
We’d like to invite you to join the “2022 AgBioData Community Workshop:
Facilitating crosstalk and network building across working groups” on March
15–17 (7-9 AM Pacific Time).
Anyone who uses, generates, or manages agricultural biological data is
encouraged to attend. Hearing about the issues that you encounter when
searching for, accessing, and reusing data in your research is very
important for developing standards and best practices for FAIR data.
Even if you can’t make it all three days, we hope that you can participate.
As part of our NSF RCN grant <https://www.agbiodata.org/node/472>, we
currently have nine working groups (WGs) focusing on different aspects of
data sharing and management in agriculture (more information about the WGs
here <https://www.agbiodata.org/all-working-groups>). The goals of this
community workshop are:
-
providing a forum for the individual WGs to communicate what they are
working on;
-
gathering detailed, impactful community feedback on specific questions
that the WGs have about data curation, archiving, and management in
agriculture.
Each day will start with short presentations from selected working groups,
followed by breakout sessions, where WG and non-WG members can meet and
discuss relevant topics, and a brief reporting period at the end.
Register for our community workshop here
