Halle Plant Science Colloquium
Interdepartmental colloquium of University groups working on any aspect of functional plant biology
The talks take place on Tuesdays:
- at 12:30 in Large Biochemistry Lecture Hall, Kurt Mothes Strasse 3, Weinberg Campus (BC)
or - at 17:00 in lecture hall E.02, Theodor Lieser Strasse 9, Campus Heide Süd (HS),
unless noted otherwise below.
If you would like to meet the speaker in person, please contact the respective host in advance.
The colloquium is an integral part of and supported by the Research Training Group 2498 "Communication and Dynamics of Plant Cell Compartments" and
the Collaborative Research Centre 1664 "SNP2Prot - Plant Proteform Diversity", both funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG).
The seminar schedule is listed below and will be updated regularly. The association of talks with RTG2498 and CRC1664 is indicated as RTG and CRC, respectively.
If you would like to receive announcements by email, please notify plant.nutrition@landw.uni-halle.de.
