We warmly welcome you to the European Plant Phenomics Symposium (EPPS), bringing together scientists from academia and industry as well as stakeholders dedicated to advancing plant phenotyping research and technology in Europe.

This symposium provides a collaborative and interactive platform for sharing the latest innovations, methods, and applications in phenotyping. With the symposium we aim at supporting the discussion about advances of Plant Phenomics under controlled and field conditions combined and its integration with genomics and data science with the goal to accelerate breeding of climate-resilient crops and to enable transition towards resilient agroecosystems, ensuring sustainable food systems under future environmental conditions.

The EPPS will take place:

from 16th to 19th of September 2025 

in the  Plenary Building at the World Conference Center Bonn, formerly a seat of the German Parliament from 1992 until 1999.

Join us for a unique opportunity to engage with experts, discover cutting-edge solutions, and explore new partnerships that will shape the future of plant science and agritech!

Main Topics


A wide range of topics related to advances in Plant Phenomics will be covered:

  • Phenotyping for innovative practices
  • Phenotyping for improvement of yield and quality
  • Phenotyping for stress resilience and tolerance
  • Phenotyping the hidden half
  • Impact of plant phenotyping
  • Future development in plant phenomics
  • Focus session on basic and advanced use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in plant phenomics
