Abstract

The world faces many challenges in the near future. A growing population, as well as climate change, create challenges to our food supply. In my talk, I will discuss how we are addressing these challenges at Bayer Crop Science. Specifically, I will discuss how we are driving innovation and new products in the Data Science and Analytics Group. I will also discuss some computational protein design projects that we have worked on for insect control products in the major row crops.
