Indoor Ag Science Café (IASC) is an open discussion forum, planned and organized by the OptimIA, ADVANCEA & CEA Herb project teams.
The videos archived on this page are hosted by the ADVANCEA Project team. Previous Indoor Ag Science Café recordings are available on the Indoor Ag Science Café YouTube Channel & CEA Herb project website.
These projects are funded by the USDA Specialty Crop Research Initiative.
