Objectifs :
The objectives of the EPSR are to encourage scientific exchanges between European PhD students working on plant models in an international context and to allow doctoral students to practice presenting their scientific problems in a convivial atmosphere.

Programme :
Organised by PhD students and for PhD students, l'EPSR is organised around 3 days of talks, keynotes, poster sessions and various workshops.

There will be 4 sessions with invited keynote speakers and talks from the PhD students: Molecular plant biology, Plant evolution, Plant development and physiology, Plant environment interactions.

We also planned poster sessions and 4 workshops (Carreer session, Imagine research facing climatic and ecological turmoil and visit of Orsay botanical garden).

During this two-day conference, exchanges around plant sciences will take place in different forms: oral presentations, poster sessions and organization of discussions around current scientific topics. The academic and private sectors will be presented in the form of oral presentations and "carreer sessions", with the aim of offering a broad vision of professional opportunities after the PhD.

The presence of researchers from different backgrounds is also intended to promote exchanges between researchers and students and will be an opportunity for the latter to expand their professional network.

It has already taken place in Wageningen (NL), Cologne (GE), Paris (FR), Norwich (UK), Ghent (BE), Amsterdam (NL), Barcelona (SP), Toulouse (FR) and Nottingham (UK).
