PhenomUK Conference, 4th & 5th September 2024 at the University of Warwick

We are back at the PhenomUK 2024 Conference, ready to engage with the vibrant community of plant phenomics researchers once again. 

The PhenomUK Research Infrastructure is crucial for maintaining the UK’s status as a leading research powerhouse. By creating a cohesive network of resources and expertise, it ensures that the UK remains at the forefront of tackling global challenges through cutting-edge research and innovation. To enhance understanding and awareness of this initiative, Intraportal has developed accessible factsheets for policymakers, highlighting the significant capabilities of infrastructure projects across the UK.

Understanding the plant phenome is key to addressing food security and climate change challenges. While genomics has advanced crop breeding, the true potential lies in comprehending plant structure and function. Current phenotyping methods, though advanced, have evolved in isolation, leading to a fragmented landscape. PhenomUK aims to bridge these gaps by standardising practices and training across different locations.

Our Sales Director, Hiran Vegad, will attend PhenomUK’s Plant Phenomics Town Hall and Conference at the University of Warwick on the 4th and 5th of September 2024. The event will bring together researchers from academia, industry, and government to discuss the latest advances and challenges in plant phenotyping. We will showcase our solutions, including LemnaTec’s advanced digital plant phenotyping AIxpert range and Headwall Photonics’ market-leading hyperspectral imaging sensors.

We look forward to another successful year at PhenomUK 2024, continuing to support and contribute to the advancements in plant phenomics research. For more information, please contact Hiran Vegad at hiran.vegad@analytik.co.uk.
