About the event

This workshop is targeted at early career researchers that want to learn about the latest cutting edge resources available in polyploid wheat.

Food security is recognised as a major global challenge, how to feed the world’s growing population against the backdrop of climate change. With the advent of the era of genomics-based technologies now is the time to translate fundamental plant biology research into crops. This workshop introduces the latest resources and the practical steps you can take to use them in your research.
