1st SEBP Algae Symposium
Comité organizador: Jae-Seong Yang, Elena Monte y Pablo Leivar. Mayo, 2024.
We are very pleased to announce the 1st Algae Symposium 2024 (AS2024) organized by the Algae Biology and Biotechnology Group of the Spanish Society of Plant Biology (SEBP, https://www.sebp.es/biologia-y-biotecnologia-de-algas/). The symposium will take place at the Auditorium of CRAG (https://www.cragenomica.es/) located in the campus of Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, near Barcelona, Spain, on May 13-14, 2024.
The Algae Biology and Biotechnology Group of the SEBP was recently established with the objective of fostering interaction and information exchange within the community of algae research groups. Our aim is to promote basic and applied algae research, enhance visibility, explore commercially and biotechnologically relevant applications, and contribute to addressing emerging social challenges related to environmental sustainability, food security, and energy efficiency.
We anticipate that this inaugural event will facilitate better understanding among members and help us organize as a community. During this gathering, decisions will be made on how to effectively manage the group. We are committed to ensuring that all participating groups have the opportunity to present, while providing visibility to young researchers. Non-members of the SEBP society are also very welcome to participate.
We look forward to seeing you all in Barcelona!
