Had an amazing time at the 11th World Soybean Research Conference in #Vienna, the birthplace of the European #soybean 🌱.
Both Prof. Sofie Goormachtig and our postdoc Sylwia Struk had the honours of presenting their fascinating work there. Go team!! 👩‍🔬

A huge thank you to all participants! ⭐

[Rhizosphere PSB @GoormachtigLab]

💃It takes three to tango: citizen, fundamental and applied science #CitSciMonth #CitSciTC

> 1000 citizens contributed to the #VIBGrandChallenges Soy project. Read the scientists' insights and conclusions in this recent article https://t.co/MsV57TTn79💡

[Rhizosphere PSB @GoormachtigLab]

Main conclusions here
1) Citizen science is an undervalued tool in a scientist's toolbox with the potential to strengthen fundamental & applied science💪
2) Integrating these three disciplines can make agriculture more sustainable and adaptive to climate change

[Rhizosphere PSB @GoormachtigLab]

💬interactive moments with citizen scientists shed light on their needs & questions
👥Citizens care for regular updates & motivators
👩‍🌾Farmers' main concerns regarding soy breeding are yield stability and market security
This is valuable input for the further project course

[Rhizosphere PSB @GoormachtigLab]

Citizen science in the #VIBGrandChallenges Soy project 👥 #CitSciMonth #CitSciTC

👩‍🌾>1000 citizens & farmers planted soy in their gardens and collected data over 6 months
🔎we investigated the gardens' soil and soy to find local bacterial partners that facilitate soy growth
