NASSTEC Final Conference »

From 25/09/2017 to 29/09/2017

at Jodrell Laboratory, Royal Botanic Gardens Kew

The native seed industry in Europe is in its infancy and will only advance if there is a better flow of ideas, data and information between academia and small- to medium-size enterprises. Over the last three years the NASSTEC project has tried to close this gap by supporting 12 young scientists to conduct cutting edge research on the plant and seed biology of native European species of importance for grassland restoration. This international conference is an opportunity to share the findings of NASSTEC with a wide audience of scientists, policy experts and representatives from industry.
