The Gatsby Plant Science Summer School 2019
The 2019 Gatsby Plant Science Summer School will be held held at The Hawkhills conference centre in Easingwold, north of York, Sunday 30 June - Thursday 4 July 2019.
The summer school is a unique opportunity for first year (or second year in Scotland) students studying at the below universities, to discover the challenge and opportunities of studying plant science, through talks from leading scientists, careers sessions, eye-opening practicals and thought-provoking discussions with researchers and peers.
The Gatsby Plant Science Summer School was established by the University of Leeds in 2005 and is now part of the Gatsby Plant Science Education Programme at the University of Cambridge. The academic advisor for the school is Dr Celia Knight, the project manager is Dr Charlotte Carroll and the project coordinator is Claire Pennycuick.
