On behalf of the International Society for Seed Science, Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew and the Organising Committee we cordially invite you to the 13th Triennial Conference of the International Society for Seed Science in Brighton, United Kingdom on 7-11 September 2020.
The International Society for Seed Science (ISSS) is a professional society dedicated to fostering and promoting research, education, and communication in the scientific understanding of seeds.
The triennial conferences are the main, general meeting of the ISSS and attract a global audience of seed scientists from academia and industry. The 13th Triennial Conference will return to the UK 25 years since the last triennial meeting was held in Reading in 1995.
The theme of the 13th Triennial Conference is ‘Seed innovation systems for the 21st century’ and the program will cover all aspects of seed science, from the fundamental science underlying seed development, germination, and lifespan through to applied research and the development of cutting-edge technologies that will transform the future outlook for seed science.
We look forward to welcoming you to the UK and an exciting meeting which will showcase the latest developments in seed science.
