Date: 18th-19th December, 2023
Venue: Royal Holloway, University of London
This symposium is supported by the JSPS London Symposium and Seminar Scheme and the purpose is to harness the power of cutting-edge genetic, genomics and biotechnology to improve the growth, yield, and overall sustainability of plant-based agriculture. This event will serve as a critical platform joining academia and industry representatives with different, albeit complementary backgrounds and level of experience from the UK, Europe and Japan, and it will be a catalyst for the exchange of ideas, collaboration, and the acceleration of scientific endeavours.
Information on the symposium programme and registration are available at the following link:

Places are limited, they will be allocated on a first come first serve basis and registration will close when the maximum number of participants is reached. It is important for the organising committee to collect information on participation numbers in advance both for catering purposes and to organise the networking session. In person presence will maximize the chance to interact and collaborate. Entry will not be permitted without registration.
