Hello! I wanted to share with my LinkedIn community that I am presenting at HERDSA conference in July together with a wonderful team Manisha Thakkar, Dhivya Rajasekaran, Amber Moore, Danielle Burges and Ashley Hillsley. Our topic is: Reviewing and Re-thinking assessments in the age of Gen-AI: An action research study.

Cheers to a prosperous New Year from the entire Discovery Seed Labs team! May 2024 be filled with growth, resilience, and the cultivation of excellence. Here's to planting the seeds of success together!🌾 #DiscoverySeedLabs #CropProductionShow #SeedSample #SeedTesting #SeedPerformance #DiseaseTesting

Here is the animated video series I referenced in my last post. Way to go Roger and Jack!

GreenBiz '24: *21 videotaped interviews with sustainability leaders (way to go, University of Michigan - Erb Institute students Jillian Brown, Annie Villalon Kartheiser, Jacob Kennedy, Supreya Kesavan, Madison Parrish, Nick Rojas), *2 alumni meet ups (great to connect with you all!), *4 breakfast conversations (thank you Andrew Winston, Kevin Self, Bryan Lewis, Cheryl Comer), *Many great sessions, informal conversations and a great set of Instagram posts (thanks Nick Rojas). We showed up! We learned! We connected! Thanks for the push to make this happen, Kevin Self. Some takeaways: *Electronic waste streams are more concentrated sources of conflict minerals than many mines. *30% of water is lost in municipal water systems through leaks. *Innovative public/private/non-profit partnerships are pushing the boundaries. *AI is being used in many different ways to identify, measure and create ESG improvements. So many AI startups! *"Sustainability is a team sport" (Melanie Nakagawa, CSO, Microsoft) – “a full body contact team sport” (Jim Andrew, CSO, PepsiCo).  *Leading companies are experimenting in many ways to identify new opportunities -- others are still having to work hard to make the business case to other managers in their firm. *Philanthropic money is often needed for the most radical innovations *Incremental innovations are not anywhere near enough. We have work to do. Carmen Quinonez, Tedra White

Hurray!! 🎉 🎊 Finally, we've submitted our work for the Hackathon on Bayesian Optimization (BO Hackathon for Chemistry and Materials Science), hosted by the @Acceleration Consortium and Merck Group. This was a truly energizing experience. Our sincere gratitude goes to Sterling G. Baird for providing us with this incredible opportunity to participate. Our project focused on "impact of molecular featurization and acquisition functions on model performance". And, Its pleasure working with you team: Yunheng(Jackie) Zou, Curtis Chong, Jakub Lála, Luis Walter, and Jan Spies. Here is a short video on our work: #hackathon #BayesianOptimization #ACBOHACKATHAN2024

Making matings with intent is a key sustainability intervention for both beef and dairy production systems. I had a great time speaking with Chip Kemp from IGS American Simmental Association about the role of hybrid beef genetics in a more profitable and sustainable supply chain. My section starts at 39:33 in the video link, but encourage you check out the interviews with Don Schiefelbein and Lane Giess as well. Our discussion centered around the role of hybrid genetics in a modern beef breeding program and the additive value of coming technologies that create the opportunity to transform beef genetic improvement.
