Hello AgBioData community members,

 

Agricultural Genome to Phenome Initiative (AG2PI) has some upcoming events you may be interested in:

 

AG2PI Training Workshop

The next AG2PI training workshop is December 9, 11am-1pm CST (UTC-6). This workshop on “Train Your Network: simplifying computer vision application development” will demonstrate a new image classification program, “Train Your Network”, designed for use by anyone, including the most novice users of AI. There will be opportunities to provide feedback on this new user interface and software, so all are encouraged to attend. Register at https://www.ag2pi.org/workshops-and-activities/workshop-2022-12-09/.

 

Seed Grant RFP Q&A session

AG2PI will hold a one hour question/answer session this Friday, December 2 (12-1pm, CST), regarding the new RFP opportunity (which we termed “coconut” grants).

AG2PI conference – save the date

We are excited to announce the next AG2PI Conference: Mapping the Future of Agricultural Genome to Phenome Research, which will be held Thursday-Friday, June 15-16, 2023, in Kansas City, MO. This event will include talks by community thought leaders, stakeholder roundtables, small group discussions, and networking opportunities, all designed to map the future of AG2P research and develop recommendations concerning the research investments needed to achieve that future. These recommendations have been requested by USDA-NIFA. The conference will be open to all, but registration will be required. Registration is expected to open in February 2023. A limited number of travel stipends will be available. Additional details to follow.

 

We are also looking for nominations of thought leaders who can present on these themes: 1) Exciting breakthroughs in AG2P research and/or 2) Needed directions in AG2P research/policies. To submit a nomination, fill out this Google Form (https://forms.gle/Fd4g6wkVMP3Jkxnp8) explaining who you are nominating and why by December 4.

 

 

Thank you,

Nicole
