Description:
University of Nebraska-Lincoln graduate students are organizing a Plant Breeding and Genetics Symposium on April 3 in the UNL East Campus Union. The symposium includes the following speakers: Dr. Stephen Baenziger (UNL Agronomy and Horticulture), Dr. David Habier (Pioneer Hi-Bred), Dr. Jean-Luc Jannink (USDA-ARS at Cornell), Dr. Jode Edwards (USDA-ARS at Iowa St), Michael Gore (USDA-ARS in Arizona), and a welcome address from Dr. Joe Keaschall (Pioneer Hi-Bred). The symposium is free to attend and is open to everyone, but seating is limited so registration is required. The symposium is also offered online via a free webinar so we are encouraging people to watch the event distantly. Registration is recommended for those watching online so that we can send an email reminder and instructions for connecting to the symposium at a later date. Please feel free to forward this message to any colleagues and students that may be interested in attending as well!
