PhenomUK Research Infrastructure
Integrating state-of-the-art national facilities in plant and crop phenotyping and connecting the UK phenomics community
Industry Directory
The PhenomUK Directory provides an open platform for plant phenotyping related companies in Europe. We neutrally list all companies who have submitted a simple company form. Industry DirectoryFacilities Survey
A goal of the project is to generate an inventory of plant phenomics facilities and capabilities that currently exist in the UK and any planned future developments The survey should take approximately 15 minutes to complete. Tell us about your facilitiesTransferable Phenomics Call
Current closed, but re-opening in 2024, this fundin, will address the challenges of transferable phenomics, supporting projects that compare phenomics approaches at geographically separated sites. Read MoreECR / Newcomers Call
In this activity we wish to support projects that encourage both Early Career Researchers (ECRs), Research Technical Professionals (RTPs) and other researchers new to the field of Plant Phenomics to apply to work with existing phenomics facilities. ECR Newcomers Funding CallCurrent Platforms
PhenomUK aims to provide easy access for UK scientists to existing phenotyping facilities. A repository of current facilities can be found here. Current PlatformsCustom Phenotyping Pilot
Across the UK, institutions have invested in workshops and MakerSpaces to design, build and test custom phenotyping equipment. This pilot scheme assesses methods for collaborating with these facilities. Custom Phenotyping PilotUK Plant Phenomics Conference 4th-5th September 2024

The PhenomUK Research Infrastructure will bring together and enhance the UK’s powerful but dispersed resources. This initiative mirrors and is closely related to international activities. Specifically, it seeks to produce a UK node of EMPHASIS, an EU ESFRI project aiming to create a pan-European plant and crop phenotyping infrastructure.
