Tassels and ears are starting to become visible across the Lipka Lab field.

Lab member Sarah just wrapped up her summer internship with Bayer AG following in the footsteps of both Brian Rice and Matthew 'Murph' Murphy, PhD. She had a great experience leaning more about computer science and cotton breeding along with working on an absolutely awesome team!

The Lipka Lab supports our students being involved with the Corteva Agriscience Plant Sciences Symposia Series. This year's symposium co-chair at UIUC is no other than the Lipka Lab's very own Matthew 'Murph' Murphy, PhD.

This past week the lab attended the annual AIFarms conference where we had the opportunity to learn more about the research and collaborations happening at UIUC between Crop Science and Computer Science. The overlap between these fields is an exciting area for innovation!

Last week was a busy week for the Lipka Lab. The Lipka Lab and our collaborators, the Eveland Lab, phenotyped our main UIUC field. To potentially speed up phenotyping this year, both labs decided to give our field a little color to pre-mark plants for phenotyping.

Whether attending in person or virtual, join the Lipka Lab in attending UIUC's Corteva Agriscience Plant Science Symposium this Friday! Registration can be found here: symposium.cropsciences.illinois.edu

The Lipka Lab is proud to announce that Lipka Lab member, Matthew 'Murph' Murphy, PhD, is now a Ph.D. candidate!

1/6 Colleagues, please help me to spread the news!!! At #UF we are hiring PhD students and postdocs. Are you interested in helping plant scientists (breeders, crop physiologist, etc.) to advance their research using AI?

Lab member Sarah had the opportunity to visit The Land Institute, The Land Institute ,this past weekend where she gave a presentation, meet some exceptional scientist, and learned more about the fantastic work on perennial species.

Dr. Alex Lipka presented this past week at the Annual ASA_CSSA_SSSA Meeting in Baltimore. Here is Dr. Lipka with the rest of the Quantitative Analytics Using Machine Learning Symposium speakers and organizers.

The Lipka Lab is at the 2023 Gordon Research Conference in Quantitative Genetics and Genomics. Dr . Alex Lipka will be heading the High-Throughput Phenotyping discussion on Thursday, while Ph.D. Candidate Matthew 'Murph' Murphy, PhD will be presenting a poster about his work in vGWAS.

The Lipka Lab is excited about the 2023 Science and Spirits presented by GDM. This is an excellent opportunity for undergraduate and graduate students to showcase student research with industry professionals. Register by March 17th at csgo.cropsciences.illinois.edu/science-spirit….

This past Monday, Dr. Lipka visited the Olimpio Lab at the Federeal University of Viçosa (in Brazil). Here, Dr. Lipka is pictured with Dr. Kaio Olimpio (Kaio Olimpio; second from left) and his lab members.

Here is Alex as an invited speaker for the UC Davis African Plant Breeding Academy, which is an initiative of the African Orphan Crops Consortium, with this fifth cohort sponsored by Mars Inc.

Today has been full of emotions. Today, I defended my Ph.D. As of a few minutes ago, I am proud to announce that I am officially Dr. Murphy! I want to thank everyone for making this journey possible!

The Lipka Lab would like to congratulate Dr. Murphy for successfully defending today! We are all proud of you, Matt!
