The BBSRC funded Wheat Improvement Strategic Programme aims to identify new and useful genetic variation to support the vital contribution of wheat breeding to food security.  

The aim of this course is to offer training in the genetic analysis methodologies employed in WISP at the John Innes Centre. The participants will gain the skills necessary to apply these methodologies in their own research. 

The course is aimed at anyone with an interest in cereals research and crop breeding.  The course is an entry level introduction, giving a taste of wheat genetics, from field trials to QTL analysis.  

A guest speaker and a visit to a commercial breeding programme will expand the topics covered.  There will also be opportunities for the whole group to enjoy social activities and discussions.

Application deadline 16th September 2014
