Shortest way to explore what will happen on PPN 2016
We are delighted to announce that the International Young Scientists Symposium “Plants in Pharmacy & Nutrition” (PPN2016) will be held for the second time in Wroclaw, Poland from 15th to 17th of September 2016, including a Botanical Excursion on Saturday, September 17th.
We kindly invite young researchers working in the area of medicinal and edible plants from all over the World to participate. It is also our honor and pleasure to announce that the Symposium is organized under patronage of the Association for Medicinal and Aromatic Plants of Southeast European Countries (AMAPSEEC) and Prof. Halina Grajeta, Dean of Pharmacy Faculty at Wroclaw Medical University
The goal of the Young Scientist Symposium is to strengthen the collaboration and to encourage young scientists to actively disseminate their results and ideas.
The symposium will be held at the recently opened main campus of Pharmaceutical Faculty, Wroclaw Medical University, Borowska 211, Wrocław, Poland. It will also possible to take an excursion to the Lower Silesian Botlainal Arboretum
Wroclaw, historical capital of Silesia and major academic research centre, is the 2016 "European Capital of Culture".
We hope that the PPN2016 Symposium will offer young researchers the possibility to meet and discuss research topics and methodologies, share and develop ideas, learn from each other and gain knowledge from experienced senior scientists.
