PlantEd – COST Action CA18111 – Genome editing in plants

PlantEd online lecture series

PlantEd is organising an online lecture series on genome editing in plants, with many high-profile speakers. The series, which is organised by PlantEd WG1 leaders Dr Goetz Hensel (henselg@hhu.de) and Dr Katrijn Van Laere (katrijn.vanlaere@ilvo.vlaanderen.be) will continue regularly until the end of 2022 and be organised via Zoom. A separate announcement will be sent out to the PlantEd network before each event, and also updated here on the website and posted on the PlantEd Twitter account (@COST_PlantEd).

With kind permission from the speakers, here are their presentations in PDF format and/or video recordings:

Here is a recording of the 26 Oct webinar.
