10 days to go

With just 10 days to go until Plastid Preview 2018, we are just finalising all the last little details – name badges have been printed, laptop connections have been tested, and refreshments have been ordered.  You can also now find the schedule and abstract book on the website here.  And if you’re following the meeting from afar, we’ll have live tweeting – just follow #plastidpreview2018.

We’re really excited to be hosting this event in 2018, and hope all 60 of our delegates are excited too. See you all in ten days…

Registration is closed

Plastid Preview 2018 is now full and registration is closed.

If you didn’t manage to get a place but would still like to come, please email the organisers and we’ll put you on the reserve list.

If you did get a place, we will be finalising the programme soon, so please send in your abstract as soon as possible if you haven’t yet done so.

55 days to go…

Present a seminar to guarantee your place

The delegate limit for the Plastid Preview 2018 is determined by our conference facilities and the funding we receive.  As outlined on the registration page, if the meeting is oversubscribed, those who have requested to present their work will be given priority.  Therefore, the easiest way to guarantee your place at Plastid Preview 2018 is to present a seminar.  This meeting is designed to foster a friendly atmosphere for PhD students and postdocs to present their work, so why not give it a go…

Our first delegates…

After registration opened and the invitations went out yesterday, the first delegates have already signed up for Plastid Preview 2018.  We’re 10% full after 1 day!  Register early to guarantee your place…
