The 2025 BrAPI Hackathon at IRRI focused on interoperability in breeding systems, with EBS teams leading discussions on analytics, genotypic data, and AI/ML integration.
At CGIAR Science Week in Nairobi, the B4T and BR teams connected with breeders, while EBS showcased its transformative role in accelerating data-driven breeding for food security.
The EBS GUS team completed a Train-the-Trainer course for ICARDA and IITA, equipping 14 breeders with advanced EBS skills through hands-on virtual sessions.
The EBS Global User Support (GUS) team successfully concluded another Train-the-Trainer course especially conducted for breeders and researchers from the International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA) and International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA).
The 2-week online sessions held on 17-28 March 2025 were attended by 14 participants stationed in Morocco, Lebanon, and Nigeria. A deep dive on the powerful features in Core Breeding, Breeding Analytics, and Core System domains were covered through demonstrations and hands-on activities.
👏 Kudos to the GUS training team: Stephanie Manrilla, Simbarashe Chisoro, Rica Mariano, Michael Gituma, Ruth Carpio, and Simon Imoro!
