Dear Hugh,
I can offer a presentation with the final results of the study on the
nursery pathway of Phytophthora spp. in Europe which I submitted a couple of
weeks ago to Forest Pathology on behalf of 56 pathologists.
Cheers

Betreff: [IUFRO RG 7.02 FORPATH] EU COST Action FP1002 PERMIT Final
Conference - CALL FOR PRESENTATIONS
Dear Colleagues,
The EU COST Action FP1002 PERMIT deals with invasive organisms and their
association with pathways for international transfer. The Action has been
running for over 3 years with particular concentration on the live Plants
for Planting pathway. We are now in the final year of the Action and during
the final week of October this year will be having a conference to summarise
the work of PERMIT and to interact with others in this field. The location
will be Estoril (near Lisbon) in Portugal and the local organiser is Dr
Edmundo Sousa.
We have a relatively limited number of places at the venue (around 70
participants) and are now publicising the meeting (see attached) and would
encourage you to consider contributing to it. Depending on the applicants
location and the subject matter of the presentation, there is a possibility
of providing financial support for travel and accommodation (EU COST rules
restrict the geographic locations that can be supported). Applicants from
Argentina, New Zealand and South Africa may be able to apply for funds in
those countries since they have signed up to COST and guaranteed some
funding for travel to COST meetings.
I look forward to hearing from you and, hopefully, to meeting some of you at
the conference in October.
With best wishes,
Hugh Evans
Chair of FP1002

Betreff: Postdoctoral position, forest epidemiology modeling
Dear Forpathers,
A postdoctoral position on forest epidemiology modeling is available at the Agroclim (INRA, Avignon) and Tree/Microorganism Interactions laboratories (INRA, Nancy) in France.
The Agroclim and Tree/Microorganism Interactions (IaM) laboratories are seeking a highly-qualified post-doctoral researcher to work on a joint project assessing the impacts of climate change on the establishment and development of crop and forest pathosystems in France. Climate change largely questions food security, but its impact on fungal diseases has been under explored, resulting in poor anticipation by management strategies designed to limit epidemics. The most significant work on climate change’s impact on diseases in France is related to forests, with INRA already having developed research models resulting in a fine description of plant x pathogen x climate interactions, as well as operational approaches largely used in forest health to identify and quantify the risks associated to future bioclimatic niches. The main objective of this post-doctoral appointment will be to improve these existing models and use them on a country-wide scale in order to identify areas favorable to the development of selected diseases, both for present and for future climates. This will be done for two forest foliar pathogens (Dothistroma Needle Blight disease on laricio pine and Diplodia pinea on pine) and two soft and durum wheat aerial fungi (stem and leaf rusts).
The successful candidate should hold a PhD with a background in epidemiology or agronomy/forestry, and also have experience in modeling. Excellent written and spoken skills in French or English are a must. The project is part of the larger framework of the newly started research network CLIF (Climate change and fungal diseases) within the INRA meta-programme, Adaptation of Agriculture and Forests to Climate Change. The successful candidate would join a group of approximately 30 scientists, including two international leaders in the field.
The appointment is for two years, with a provisional start date of July 2014. The candidate’s time would be split between the two labs, with 15 months spent at the Agroclim unit in Avignon (http://www6.paca.inra.fr/agroclim) and 9 months at the Tree/Microorganism Interactions unit in Nancy (http://mycor.nancy.inra.fr/IAM/)
Candidates must send their CV and a cover letter to Marie Launay (Agroclim, Avignon) <mailto:mlaunay@avignon.inra.fr> mlaunay(a)avignon.inra.fr and Benoit Marcais (IaM, Nancy) <mailto:benoit.marcais@nancy.inra.fr> benoit.marcais(a)nancy.inra.fr.
Candidates will be encouraged to apply for an AgreenSkills fellowship that will bring the gross monthly salary up to €3500. The next call for submission is 5 May 2014, 24:00 CET. To find out more about the programme and whether you are able to apply for a fellowship, visit <http://www.agreenskills.eu> www.agreenskills.eu
