The IWGSC Workshop at PAG is a premier venue for scientists advancing genome-based research and improvement in bread wheat. Oral presentations will focus on latest frontiers in genome biology, basic or applied, leading to significant advances in wheat science. The workshop will also include a presentation from the recipient of the IWGSC Early Career Award and travel stipend. This award is given to a young scientist nominated by anyone in the wheat community and selected by the IWGSC leadership in recognition of outstanding achievement.
Organizers: Joshua Stein and Rudi Appels
