Some learnings from this year's The Crawford Fund conference 👂Spend time really LISTENing to what farmers & partners incountry want/need 🤝 Build genuine, equal partnerships & co-design projects for real impact 👩🌾 Transforming food systems needs holistic, collaborative solutions
Congratulations to Dr Michael Taleski from ANU for receiving an Australian Research Council DECRA to work on unlocking crop yield gains through nitrogen use efficiency, in collaboration with some of our Centre CIs, including Lee Hickey and Peter Crisp 👏 ➡️shorturl.at/tGdbm
Kicking off the first day of root phenotyping! Excited to see the Core Break method in action again with collaboration between CSIRO ARC Training Centre in Predictive Breeding ARC linkage between UQ News and InterGrain. #RootPhenotyping
Day two..#rootphenotyping and root counting in the field continues… A great effort to better understand root distribution and root size in Australian barley in collaboration with CSIRO and InterGrain QLD Alliance for Agriculture & Food Innovation
Congratulations to Professor Mario Calus for taking on the position of Professor/Chairholder of the Animal Breeding and Genomics chair group of Wageningen University & Research Wageningen U&R
Great to spend the last few days checking out ChickpeaBreedingAustralia trials on the Western Downs with Kristy Hobson Shanice Van Haeften seeing how they're holding up with this heat 🔥
Day three … and still counting roots! I thought it is time for making some sweets for tomorrow. You have to wait to see what we will have for morning tea🤩 #roots #droughtadaptation CSIRO QLD Alliance for Agriculture & Food Innovation UQ News ARC Training Centre in Predictive Breeding Hickey Lab
Day four of field root phenotyping! It was definitely time for some home made baklava!! and a group photo with both CSIRO and QLD Alliance for Agriculture & Food Innovation teams. We're seeking a better understanding of drought adaptive mechanisms in Australian barley by exploring root distribution ARC Training Centre in Predictive Breeding
We’re excited to launch a new Expression of Interest (EOI) form to allow you to apply for PhD studentship or postdoctoral researcher positions within the Australian Research Council Training Centre in Predictive Breeding. We are especially seeking EOI's from Quantitative Geneticists in Animal
