This international training event was organized by INRA, with the support of ACTA, JHI, and the Sant’Anna University, under the umbrella of ENDURE (http://www.endure-network.eu/).

The objectives of the summer school were:

i) to strengthen the scientific nature of system experiments through a solid methological corpus;

ii) learn how to build an experimental design taking into account the objectives, hypotheses and data analysis;

iii) share the difficulties encountered in analysing the data collected in system experiments and proposing appropriate solutions;

iv) build an international culture with shared representations on system experiments.

19 participants coming from 5 continents attented a set of varied lectures given by agronomists specialized in system experiments and data scientists, and actively participated to 3 teamworks and a field visit to get hands-on experience. Let’s bet that they will put in practice very soon their new knowledge in their activities within ReMIX!
