When I started in plant phenotyping we'd ask: How close can we get to human performance? Now Nikee Shrestha (@NikeeShrestha2) is asking: How much better than humans are we doing?

FFAR Fellow @NikeeShrestha2 explains how she uses satellites to study corn genetics. "You might be thinking how can we choose the best corn? Because it's all corn. That's where genetics comes in." @AII4RA (1/2)

We're starting the search for the next leader of the Nebraska Plant Transformation Center. This is an open rank faculty position. That means we are open to, and the the financial support to hire someone at the assistant, associate or full professor level. (1/5)

Using autoencoders -- an unsupervised ML approach -- to derive plant traits from hyperspectral reflectance data. Potentially bypasses the need for extensive labeled datasets. Big thank you to lead author @tross_michael and our @aii4ra collaborators. https://t.co/ouuAaKF6TG
