We're loving this plant signalling demo from Toyota et al 2018! 🍂⚡️ Simulating an injury or a caterpillar munching literally sends shockwaves through the plant. 🌱🐛 A plant injured on one leaf can alert its other leaves to begin defense responses!

I am excited to announce that my book, "Deep Generative Modeling", is available online and in print (Springer Nature): link.springer.com/book/10.1007/9… Code used in the book is freely available online: github.com/jmtomczak/intr… (1/4)

Hey, are you at #NAPPN22 #NAPPN2022? Come check out the virtual PhenomeForce workshop on root image analysis at 1 pm eastern Feb 24, 2022. We will discuss RhizoVision Explorer, the most popular free root image analysis tool. No hype, it just works. Check Whova for details.

Saying that PhD students and postdoctoral associates are 'in training' so deserve less pay and non-employee status perpetuates an unethical and unsustainable system. We are ALL ""in training"". In fact, this infantilization of scientists follows them throughout their career.

New paper! For years, I saw people often split up root samples that were too big to fit in a scan. But, there was no standard way to combine the data back. We solve this issue with two methods, image concatenation and statistical aggregation RhizoVision Explorer nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/np…
