Pipeline organization: the GCCRC is structured and managed as an integrated agricultural biotechnology pipeline.
Know-how: Our team of scientists has extensive experience in gene discovery, bioinformatics, genomics, microbiomes, metagenomics, gene editing, field trials, intellectual property, and regulatory issues.
Infrastructure: The GCCRC created dedicated facilities for maize germplasm development, plant transformation, gene editing, controlled growth rooms, state-of-the-art greenhouses, imaging- and sensor-based plant phenotyping, assisted by a customized Laboratory Integrated Management System (LIMS).
Capacity building, job and training opportunities: Positions for post-doctoral associates, Ph.D. students, and technical training fellows are open regularly. The GCCRC offers a course on plant biotechnology pipeline and innovation.
