What a cracking talk by @Lucy_Egan_ from @CSIRO about the complexity of breeding cotton for resistance to verticillium wilt, & ways to untange this complexity 🦠🌱🧬 No only does she give a great talk, but she’s also on the #AACS conference banner. 🤩 #kickinggoals

What more can a field breeder ask for...? A group of people together in a room, all keen on plants, passionate about crop improvement, and with the data wrangling skills to match. 🤩
Enjoyed facilitating a planning workshop of CSIRO’s powerhouse Crop Data Science Group. An amazing capability of leading edge ML, AI & diverse data analytics applied to phenomics, genomics for crop breeding with many broader uses across agriculture and food #FutureCrops
