Halle Plant Science Colloquium
Interdepartmental colloquium of University groups working on any aspect of functional plant biology
Talks take place on Tuesdays, 17:00 in lecture hall E.02 (Julius Kühn), Theodor Lieser Strasse 9, Heide Süd Campus, unless noted otherwise below.
If you like to have a personal discussion with the speaker, please contact the respective host in advance.
The colloquium is an integral part of and supported by:
