Celebrating 75 years of the Journal of Experimental Botany, this symposium in Edinburgh brings together leading and emerging plant scientists to reflect on the journal’s legacy and explore future challenges in plant research. Structured around themes of Beginnings, Growth, Maturity, and Future, the event fosters collaboration, knowledge exchange, and inspiration for the next generation of botanical innovation.

The 2026 Geobiology Gordon Research Conference is a premier international scientific gathering focused on the theme “Geobiology and Planetary Change: Understanding Earth and Life’s Progression.” Held in Ventura, California, the five-day event features cutting-edge, unpublished research, interactive discussions, and poster sessions. It fosters collaboration across career stages and disciplines, with topics ranging from paleobiology and microbial evolution to applied geobiology and early life evidence.
