Dear Colleagues, I’d like to welcome you to attend the IUFRO Tree Biotech 2024 conference, August 4-8, in Annapolis, MD, USA. We plan to give out 15+ travel awards, with $1000 per award, to make this conference even more accessible. The new application deadline is April 30, 2024. Please apply at our conference site: https://treebiotech.org/ We have also developed a preliminary conference program, saving many oral presentation slots to be filled from those who submit abstracts for consideration. Please note, that abstract submission for oral presentation and early registration also close on April 30, 2024. You may directly register and submit your abstract at this registration site: https://app.certain.com/profile/form/index.cfm?PKformID=0x3390665abcd We look forward to seeing you in Annapolis, a beautiful town at the heart of the ‎Chesapeake Bay. The conference venue is very close to Washington DC and three major airports (IAD, BWI, and DCA).
