The goals of this graduate student/postdoc organization are:

  • Promoting scientific events related to plant science (bringing invited speakers).
  • Developing soft skills among students and postdocs (workshops).
  • Developing a community where students and postdocs can share their own experiences (social events, travel awards, summer webinar series).
  • Providing guidance to younger plant scientists (mentor program, career panels).
