SHORT ONLINE MEETING ON 26 NOVEMBER

 

Dear all,

As an alternative for the Autumn meeting of the section Mycology, we invite you to a short online meeting on 26th of November between 13.00 and 15.00.

Five Ph.D students and young postdocs will present their work to the Mycology community in the Netherlands.

Please show your solidarity to these people that worked so hard and generated so many data!

Below you can find a ZOOM link for a maximum of 100 attendees. On behalf of the organizing team I hope that all 100 slots will be filled.

The program of the meeting is shown below.

 

The meeting link has been sent to all KNVM members, for inquiries email j.dijksterhuis [at] wi.knaw.nl

 

Kind regards,

Jan Dijksterhuis,
