EMPHASIS (European Infrastructure for Multi-Scale Plant Phenotyping)

The European Strategic Forum for Research Infrastructure (ESFRI) has thus identified “Plant Phenotyping” as a priority for the European research addressing primary plant production as the key step in future European agro-food-systems and bio-economy transformation. EMPHASIS has been listed on the ESFRI ROADMAP in 2016, the Preparatory Phase project (EMPHASIS-PREP, 2017-2021) paved the way towards implementation and subsequent operation by developing a business plan and established the Interim General Assembly with a high-level representation from policy and science as main decision-making body. The implementation phase project (EMPHASIS-GO 2022-2025) will build on the successful work in the Preparatory Phase, extend the membership with partners from eleven countries fully committed to support EMPHASIS and bring EMPHASIS into operation to fully explore the potential European plant phenotyping by i) developing and deploying services, ii) implement the legal, financial and organisational framework and iii) consolidating the business plan for future operations.
