We are pleased to announce that IBERS is organising the Plant Science Wales Meeting 2025, taking place at the National Botanic Garden of Wales on 9–10 September 2025. This event is supported by LSW through the FLSW Events Support programme.
This exciting event will bring together plant scientists from across Wales to build connections, share research, and discuss the big issues shaping the future of the field.
The meeting will feature:
- Keynote speakers (TBC) on themes such as biophilia, conservation, succession planning, and societal impact
- Rapid-fire talks and poster sessions, with a strong focus on PhD students and early career researchers
- Breakout discussions on policy, education, funding, careers, and the future of plant sciences
- A pre-meeting programme including tours of the National Seed Bank, herbarium, and meadows for those arriving the day before
The goals of this meeting are to reduce fragmentation across the Welsh plant science community, foster collaboration, and create an inclusive, PhD-friendly environment where foundational and applied plant sciences can thrive.
Researchers, students, educators, and anyone interested in plant science are invited to attend.
