From Immune Pathways to AI-Powered Pest Management
A 3-day, globally relevant workshop on insect immunity and AI-enabled pest management—covering immune pathways, immune priming, RNAi/biopesticide relevance, and predictive modeling. Participants will complete guided, hands-on exercises (40%) using datasets and open tools to build practical insights for research and real-world pest control.
To equip participants with a strong understanding of insect immune systems and the practical application of artificial intelligence in analyzing immune responses, predicting pest resistance, and developing sustainable, next-generation pest control strategies through a balanced blend of theory and hands-on learning.
To introduce the fundamentals of insect immunology, including humoral and cellular immune pathways and immune priming.
To explain the role of artificial intelligence in analyzing insect immune parameters and gene expression data.
To demonstrate how AI-driven approaches can predict insect resistance to pathogens, pesticides, and biocontrol agents.
To provide hands-on experience with open-source tools for immune response modeling and data-driven pest management.
To highlight global case studies linking insect immunity, AI, and sustainable pest control practices.
