The ETNA School was organised by Ulrich Schurr and his team at the Jülich Forschungszentrum in Germany, accompanied by François Tardieu (INRA).

The ETNA School aimed to provide lecture-based foundation of state-of-the art phenotyping technologies, direct discussion of course participants with leading scientists applying and developing plant phenotyping, hand-on experience with advanced phenotyping technologies and installations, and introduction to novel concepts on plant phenotyping.

The following topics were covered:

• Plant cultivation
• Analysis of leaf, root, and plant growth
• Measuring and Imaging photosynthesis sensing
• Hyperspectral imaging and remote sensing
• NMR-imaging
• Microwave resonator
