PLEASE LOGIN TO SEE THE SCIENTIFIC PROGRAM

Welcome!

The Canadian Society of Plant Biologists (CSPB-SCBV) holds its Eastern Regional Meeting each fall. This annual event brings together plant biology researchers from academic, government, and industry labs in Eastern Canada for a day of talks, posters, and networking on all aspects of plant science.

Given the non-resolved coronavirus pandemic worldwide, the CSPB-SCBV and the Organizing Committee have opted for a virtual format.  This format ensures the continuity of knowledge exchange and offers flexibility to participants.

Following in the tradition of the society, this year's event will include two plenary lectures by leaders in their field together with oral and e-poster presentations given mostly by post-doctoral fellows and graduate students covering all aspects of plant science and technology. 

The virtual conference program presents the schedule in your time zone. All plenary and concurrent talks will be live or pre-recorded followed by a Q&A session with the speakers. Posters will be accompanied by short pre-recorded talks, and the poster sessions will include opportunities for live interaction with presenters. The concurrent sessions will be available for on-demand viewing shortly after the conference is complete.

Authors are encouraged to submit their abstracts as early as possible (deadline is November 12th) to allow for selection of oral presentations. The organizing committee will attempt to provide as much advance notice to presenters as possible.  

See you soon!
