The Center for Plant Genomics Training and Education hosts summer genomics workshops
designed to provide underrepresented high school and college students with the opportunity
to conduct a unique question-based genomics experiment with real world applicability, and
has also helped establish community gardens that serve to educate students, teachers,
researchers and the public about plant genomics, Solanaceous crops, the importance of
plant diversity and applications of genomics for breeding sustainable, environmentally
friendly crops.
