About Computomics Podcast - In Conversation
From the publisher's feed
Computomics sits down with guest experts to talk AI, agriculture, farming, crops, and food - sometimes zooming out to big trends, sometimes digging into one specific research project. The question that keeps coming up: can things like machine learning actually help solve the food challenges the world's facing?
New episodes drop every third Thursday, every other month, in an interview format. Experts talk on biotech and agriculture, real project examples, a look at upcoming events, and plenty on AI, genomics, and where plant breeding is headed.
