[IUFRO Div 7] IUFRO 16th Root and stem rots conference

Dear all, We earlier had to inform you the root and stem rots conference originally planned for October this autumn had to be postponed until spring 2022. The 16th IUFRO root and stem rots conference is now scheduled as a virtual conference in mid March 2022, 14-17/3. You are welcome to visit the official website where all the information will be posted: https://www.uv.mx/16-iufro/ Deadline for abstracts is January 31st 2022. A small fee will be asked from the participants for which you will not just be offered to listen to other researchers but also some cultural surprises. The idea is also that part of the fee will go towards paying the membership fee in IUFRO for the University. The fee is set to 20 USD for students and 50 USD for researchers and other professionals. The conference itself will be divided into four days, 14-17th of March. Each day will offer three hours of talks and events. It will be possible to give a normal presentation, 10+5 minutes, and also short speed talks based on "posters". There will be condensed keynotes as well, 20+5 minutes. A bit depending on the technology, pre-recorded presentations might be asked for. More information will come regarding this. We have decided to have a more old-fashioned styled conference without a strict theme. We think that we are already working with a globalized climatically changing world so we welcome any kind of relevant presentation to our working party. You are though welcome to propose keynote speakers. We will strive for interesting science but would also like to see a representation spanning over different gender and career stages.
