Scientific Programme The scientific programme will consist of invited keynote presentations, discussion sessions on topical issues, educational sessions led by distinguished scientists, and oral and poster sessions based on offered contributions. One of the five congress days will be used for field excursions. The SPC is dedicated to developing a scientific programme with a truly global scope that will be attractive to scientists as well as graduate students in Weed Science and related disciplines. We therefore, invite you to send us ideas for specific sessions (for example, within innovative and emerging research areas). Send your suggestions to Per Kudsk, Chairman Scientific Programme Committee (per.kudsk@agrsci.dk) We will regularly upload the suggestions we receive to the IWSS webpage (www.iwss.info). The second circular that will be released in June 2011 will contain the full list of sessions and a call for abstracts. Registration Sunday, 17 June 2012 |
