🌱 Hello, Blueskyers! We’re the Plant Biology Lectures Series — or PBL — a meeting created to bring together Plant Biology researchers.Our previous editions 👇 PBL 2026! @pblseries.bsky.social More info: @PBLseries on X/Twitter · @plantbiologylectures on IG, and plantbiologylecturesarg@gmail.com
Since 1998, hundreds of students have met inspiring scientists, discovered new research, built collaborations, and found opportunities to continue their career in Plant Science . 🌎🔬
After 2022 and 2024 meetings in Buenos Aires and Rosario, PBL 2026 is coming to Buenos Aires! 🇦🇷 This is more than a lecture series. It’s about science, people, conversations, and opening doors. 🚪🌱
