Who Should Attend?
This intensive course is intended to bring together breeders, geneticists, statisticians, data scientists, and students actively engaged in applying modern tools to accelerate breeding, enhance genetic gain, and improve the adaptation of plants for optimal growth, development, and yield. If your research interest is in genetics, genomics, phenomics, and/or breeding of crop species (fruits, seeds, forages, bioenergy crops, etc.) you should strongly consider attending this highly specialized training program.
Attendees will include:
- Geneticists, plant and animal breeders
- Private industry seed professionals
- Academic scientists, and post-doctoral, graduate, and undergraduate students
- Researchers working with fruits, seeds, forages, trees, etc.
- Crop physiology, and crop growth modeling professionals
- State and federal government personnel
- Non-for-profit research institutes
