[Cyverse.Nappn] Invitation: AG2PI Launch Event

[Scott, Nicole M [AGRON]]

Dear colleagues,

We invite you to learn about the new, USDA-funded Agricultural Genomes to Phenomes Initiative (AG2PI<https://www.ag2pi.org/>) on October 28 from 10:30 AM to noon CST.

During the program we will introduce you to AG2PI, explain its activities, solicit your input and encourage your participation. To put it succinctly, the focus of this project is to build cross-kingdom research communities to address the challenges of genome to phenome (G2P) research and find opportunities to work together to identify shared critical research gaps. Importantly, this is an opportunity for the community to share with the USDA a vision that may be used to guide future USDA requests for proposals in this space.

You can register for this Zoom meeting here: https://tinyurl.com/yyjrn3o7. Upon registration, you will receive a confirmation email with information about joining the meeting. If you are unable to attend the live session, then you will be able to find a recording at ag2pi.org/<https://www.ag2pi.org/>, at a later date. Space IS limited, so register soon.

Feel free to share this message and attached flyer with colleagues at your institution. We particularly encourage you to share the flyer with your engineering and data science colleagues who might not otherwise hear about this event.

We look forward to seeing you on October 28!

Kind regards,

Pat Schnable (PI)
Jennifer Clarke (Co-PI)
Jack Dekkers (Co-PI)
Carolyn Lawrence-Dill (Co-PI)
Eric Lyons (Co-PI)
Brenda Murdoch (Co-PI)
