About our Events

Since 1995, the internationally renowned series of New Phytologist Symposia have aimed to support emerging and key areas of research. Usually these meetings would be expected to extend over one to three days, with invited speakers and a maximum of 120 delegates. In this way we hope to provide an informal atmosphere for the stimulation and exchange of ideas and the building of collaborations. We particularly encourage the involvement of early-career scientists and as such a number of travel grants will be awarded in association with each meeting. Each symposium has a dedicated page for registration and abstract submission. 

New Phytologist Workshops aim to facilitate advances in plant science by bringing together a small number of scientists who wish to focus and brainstorm a particular topic or issue. The format is intentionally flexible to suit a range of projects but this might, for example, include a working group that intends to focus on analysing new data, or analysing old data in the light of new techniques and planning the way forward. The output from the workshop would be written up and submitted for publication in New Phytologist as a research manuscript or synthesis paper, or in some cases a position paper intended for the Forum section.

If you are interested in organising a New Phytologist Workshop, please complete the workshop proposal pro-forma and email this to us (contact details are on the form). Workshop proposals are accepted throughout the year and are considered twice annually.

New Phytologist Now is an online event series where you can discover the latest and most exciting plant science research published in New Phytologist. All previous webinars are available to watch on demand.
