Q1 Investment Program (WU + WR) Data Science AI PHENET Horizon EU

In PHENET, the European Research Infrastructures on plant phenotyping (EMPHASIS), ecosystems experimentation (AnaEE), long-term observation (eLTER) and data management and bioinformatics (ELIXIR) join forces to co-develop, with a diversity of innovative companies, new tools and methods – meant to contribute to new RI services - for the identification of future-proofed combinations of species, genotypes and management practices in front of the most likely climatic scenarios across Europe. Our own NPEC is one of the participating Research Infrastructures!

WUR spearheads the consortium efforts to develop a new generation of predictive modeling solutions with AI for plant phenotyping. The project had its kick-off meeting at Montpellier, in 21-23 March! More about the project on the PHENET website
