The event aims to facilitate the exchange of knowledge, foster collaboration, and inspire innovation through presentations, an exhibition, networking opportunities and workshops at Nebraska Innovation Campus. Over 250 attendees have already registered to attend.
A diverse range of scientists will participate, including plant biologists, ecologists, engineers, agronomists and computer scientists.
Emerging frontiers in plant phenomics will be among the topics explored, as well as cutting-edge technologies and solutions provided by industry, plus artificial intelligence and data science advancing plant phenotyping methods.
Workshops at Nebraska Innovation Campus will include machine learning for cyber-agricultural systems; root phenotyping; genebank phenotyping; advances in forest and tree phenotyping; global phenotyping research infrastructure; the open source pipeline for drone- and satellite-based high throughput phenotyping applications; and the scope of plant phenotyping within the broader scientific community.
An additional workshop will be phenoACCESS-24: Workshop on Research Computing and Plant Phenotyping, with travel grants provided by the National Science Foundation. To apply for the workshop, please visit https://hcc.unl.edu/phenoaccess-24-workshop-research-computing-and-plant-phenotyping.
Innovation Campus will host two industry workshops, one on multispectral imaging with gravimetric phenotyping, and one on infrastructure needed to meet next-generation research needs.
The conference will conclude on Friday, Oct. 11 with a choice of optional tours, including local museums; a trip to the university’s Eastern Nebraska Research, Extension and Education Center to visit the Spydercam field phenotyping facility; Robbers Cave; and a visit to Li-Cor.
