IUFRO Notho/Fagaceae virtual meeting 2026
by obrendel
Dear colleagues,
it has been a while since the last visual group meeting in spring 2024.
I’m sure that you have many exciting new results to share. To be able to
organize a *spring online meeting of our IUFRO group* on /Evolution and
Adaptation of Fagaceae and Nothofagaceae/, mid-May, *we are looking for
a date* that suits most members of the group. Due to the many bank
holidays in May, the choice is be limited to dates between the 18^th
and the 29^th of May.
We propose to do a similar meeting as before, with either pre-recorded
20min talks to watch before the meeting, or 5min live talks (mainly for
students). The pre-recorded talks will give a short 3 min introduction
during the actual meeting, before time for questions and discussion.
We welcome very much presentations of recent publications, by PhD
students, Post-docs or senior scientists. Especially, if you have any
PhD students in your lab with a topic close to our group, please
motivate him or her to either record a 20min talk, or to do a live 5
minutes talk about one experiment of their PhD.
Also, please contact me directly if you have new scientists in your
group to add to the IUFRO mailing list.
In the following date survey you can pick your favourite dates as well
as indicate if you would like to introduce a pre-recorded 20min talk or
do a 3-5min presentation or none.
If possible, also leave a comment with a preliminary title of your talk
(or just some keywords about the species concerned, and your scientific
discipline) and your contact email address (or send me an additional
email , because I need to be able to contact speakers directly and
therefore need an email address).

*Please respond to this survey rapidly, at latest before the 20th of March.*
If you are not sure yet about the exact topic of your talk, this is no
problem, there is still time, but I need a good idea of the number of
talks, and if a selection is necessary.
As for the timing, we propose again a 2 hours meeting: 12:00-14:00
GMT/UTC, so early in the day for Americans (5-7 San Francisco, 7-9
Chicago, 9-11 Argentina), early afternoon for people in Europe (14-16
Paris CEST) and late in the day for scientists in Asia (Tokyo 21-23).
You will be able to watch the 20min talks one week before the meeting on
Youtube (so reserve some time), which also means that the recorded talks
should be available one week before the chosen meeting date.
We hope to see you all there, virtually best regards
Oliver Brendel, Chuck Cannon & Keiko Kitamura
