Advances in Nematology 2022
8 December 2022
We are delighted that ‘Advances in Nematology 2022′ will take place as a single-day hybrid event on Thursday December 8th hosted online and at The Linnean Society in London.
This event is hosted by the Association of Applied Biologists Nematology Specialist Group and invites contributions from areas encompassing all the applied biology of nematology (molecular biology of nematodes or hosts, ecology, epidemiology, management of plant-parasitic nematodes, entomopathogenic nematodes and emerging diagnostic methods).
Abstract Submission
We encourage submission of abstracts for delegates to present their work on any aspect of Nematological research. The sessions will be built around the topics of the submitted abstracts.
We will select ~10 speakers to provide a ‘regular presentation‘ and ~10 speakers to provide a short talk.
As this meeting is just one-day we have decided NOT to host a poster session as there is limited time to do justice for the time taken for presenters to produce their posters.
The ~20 slots available for oral presentations will provide great opportunities for delegates to present their work. We will select oral presentations from both in-person and online delegates so please submit an abstract however you will participate in the meeting.
Abstract Submission closes on November 1st 2022 and we will announce the meeting schedule in the second week of November.
We are delighted to confirm two invited speakers for the event:
-> Dr Olivera Topalovic, University of Copenhagen – In-Person talk
Microbial role in suppression and protection of plant-parasitic nematodes
-> Dr Maria Inacio, INIAV, Portugal – In-Person talk
The hybrid format provides the opportunity to interact with a global cohort of interested nematologists. The Linnean Society is a magnificently historic venue for a scientific meeting but they limit the number of in-person attendees to 45.
In the case of over-subscription in-person delegates will be selected to ensure a varied group in terms of career stage and topic. We aim that the majority of presentations will be provided in-person but we will also host online presentations.
Virtual attendees will benefit from professional broadcast of the event to an online platform. This will allow questions to be asked by both in-person and virtual attendees.
