Plant Protection Symposium

Symposium: Plant protection, yes - but how

For the sake of the environment and due to the rapid development of genetic engineering, plant protection is currently undergoing major changes.
The symposium is organized by the German Chemical Society (GDCh) together with DECHEMA and the Scientific Circle for Green Genetic Engineering (WGG). The event will be moderated by Prof. Dr. Klaus-Dieter Jany, a member of the Senior Chemists Association. The event will take place at DECHEMA in Frankfurt and starts at 1:00 p.m. Registration is required. More information will be available soon on the official GDCh website: www.gdch.de/pflanzenschutz2025.
