First Annual Crops in silico Symposium and Workshop

     

    plants-in-silico-symposium-group-6900The first annual Crops in silico Symposium and Workshop was held in May 2016 with the goals of sharing research from isolated efforts and organizing collaborative thinking toward generating virtual crops.

    The aims of the Psi Symposium & Workshop were:

    • Learn from similar modular multiscale modeling platforms that Psi can emulate;
    • Exchange information on the latest developments in plant modeling from molecular to system levels;
    • Map a course to achieve plants in silico by creating a community framework model; and
    • Build a community of researchers from different domains of expertise.
