AI Institute for Next Generation Food Systems (AIFS)’s Post

Throughout the University of California system, researchers are embracing AI technologies. UC has always been known for its contributions to science and the groundbreaking solutions these innovations bring to California. Now, with #AI tools like Natural Language Processing (#NLP) and Machine Learning (#ML) available to help process vast amounts of data, the path to solving California's problems — and the world's — is shortened. UC highlights some of the most impactful projects researchers are working on right now across multiple campuses — from transportation and homelessness to food and health to wildfires and biodiversity. We're happy to have AIFS researcher, Christine Diepenbrock, featured for her work at University of California, Davis aimed at growing more and better food with fewer resources. Dr. Diepenbrock uses AI to help predict the best molecular breeding combinations to create more climate-resistant and nutritious food. This article highlights her work to boost levels of provitamin A carotenoids in maize. More nutritious maize helps address vitamin A deficiency among populations who depend on the crop as a dietary staple. #innovation #artificialintelligence #california
