SUMMARY:International Advances in Plant Virology 2027 (IAPV27)
DESCRIPTION:VISIT EVENT WEBSITE\nPlant  viruses cause global and regional economic and societal losses\, being  responsible for a significant proportion of devastating emergent and  re-emergent plant diseases. \nThe  AAB ‘International Advances in Plant Virology (IAPV)’ conference has a  broad remit where we invite participation from scientists who are  interested in all aspects of plant virology. These research areas might  be on the molecular mechanisms of plant-virus interactions; the applied  consequences of plant virus infection; evolutionary and ecological  aspects of plant viruses and exploring how plant viruses can be utilised in biotechnology. \nWe are very excited that IAPV27 will be organised at the University of Cambridge in the UK. This follows on the very successful IAPV25 in which over 250 delegates joined the meeting online or in Murcia\, Spain. \nIAPV27 is organised in collaboration with the Euphresco projects VIRNET2 and VALORHIGHTS and the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Doctoral Network Viroidoc. Each project contributes to a session at IAPV27 in order to increase exposure to their activities. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nConfirmed Speakers and Schedule \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe will share the full schedule in February 2027 but we are delighted to welcome these confirmed speakers: \nManfred Heinlein (Institute of plant molecular biology IBMP\, Strasbourg\, France) \nChristina Wege (University of Stuttgart\, Germany) \nDavid Baulcombe (University of Cambridge) \nMarion Clavel (Max Planck Institute of Molecular Plant Physiology\, Potsdam\, Germany) \nJohn Carr (University of Cambridge) \nLouise McNamara (Teagasc\, Ireland) \nRichard Kormelink (Wageningen University\, The Netherlands) \n\nWe encourage abstract submissions from anyone working in the broad research topic of Plant Virology. \nImportantly there will be plenty of opportunities for early career professionals to present provide an oral or poster presentation. \nAbstract submission deadline for Oral presentations: January 13th 2027 \nAbstract submission deadline for Poster presentations: February 13th 2027 \nSUBMIT ABSTRACT HERE \nTopics for abstract submissions: \nWe will ask you to select the broad topic that is the best fit for your abstract. This does not rule you out for being selected for other  sessions but just helps abstract management. \ni. Viroids \nii. Viromics and characterisation of novel viruses \niii. Ecology and community analyses \niv. Virus transmission \nv. Host responses \nvi. New research tools\, technology or resources \nvii. Mechanisms of infection \nviii. Virus diagnostics \nix. Other

SUMMARY:Plant Biology Education 2: Partnerships\, Learning\, Audiences and Networks for Teaching (PLANT).
DESCRIPTION:AAB are delighted to be organising a follow-up meeting to the very successful Plant Science Education meeting held in Lancaster in January 2025. We were delighted to publish a ‘Manifesto for Plant Science Education’ that resulted from discussions held within that meeting.  \nAlvey et al (2025) A manifesto for plant science education https://nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ppp3.70115 \nThis event takes place in Churchill College\, Cambridge University on Tuesday April 13th-Wednesday April 14th 2027. \nThis meeting will include plenary talks\, workshops and a poster session\, all of which will allow participants to share their ideas\, successes and challenges of plant science teaching. This event has a focus on higher education teaching but we hope it will be relevant for school-teachers. Indeed we will include a session that focusses on secondary education. \nThe event will be organised as a hybrid event so hope that those people who are unable to travel to Cambridge\, can join the event online. \nAs ever we aim to keep delegates fees as low as possible as we are aware that there is often less conference-funding available for those people with a teaching-focus. \nRegistration and abstract submission will open in October 2026. Abstract submission will close on January 31st 2027. \nDepending on obtaining sponsorship we expect delegates fees will be £150 for the two day meeting\, with reduced fees for Society members (AAB\, SEB).
