Dear AgBioData members,

 

We have one new announcement and one reminder to share:

  1. New: The next Agricultural Genome to Phenome Initiative (AG2PI) training workshop, “Combined GWAS and TWAS using SVEN” will be May 17 from 10 AM to 1 PM (CDT; UTC-5). The workshop series will cover: Fundamental of Bayesian hierarchical models in association studies; Demonstration of SVEN from R package bravo using data from a maize panel; and, Hands-on experience in using SVEN under the R statistical software. By the end of the workshop series, you'll be able to: Understand the marginal inclusion probability as an alternative to the p-value; Use SVEN to analyze your dataset; Summarize and visualize the output from SVEN.

  1. Reminder: The next AG2PI virtual Field Day will be “Digital Tools for Agriculture Research - AG2PI "Coconut" Grant Outcomes” and will be on Wednesday, April 24 from 10:30 AM to 12:00 PM (CDT, UTC-5). In this field day, we will first hear from Dr. Trevor Rife regarding how his app “Field Book” can be used as a tool for plant phenotyping. Then, Dr. Jinha Jung, Dr. Minyoung Jung and Benjamin Hancock will introduce their open source online platform for UAS HTP data management and sharing. Both of these presentations are outcomes from AG2PI “coconut” (large seed) grants. Register for this Zoom event at https://www.ag2pi.org/workshops-and-activities/field-day-2024-04-24/, where you will also find additional information.

 

We look forward to seeing you at a future event!
