2026 INRAE BAP division PhD and Postdoc Days organised by the IJPB

By organizing these days, the  INRAE BAP Department “Biology and Plant Breeding” aims to provide PhD students and postdoctoral researchers with an opportunity to meet and exchange ideas, to give them a broader overview of the research carried out within the department, to better support them throughout their PhD, and also to introduce them to the research conducted in other  INRAE units where they may apply after completing their thesis. These days will bring together 56 early-career researchers.

The organizing committee has designed a program including oral presentations, “flash talks,” and poster sessions.
In particular, the program will:

Build a community and network of PhD students within the BAP Department
Create opportunities for sharing and discussion
Stimulate scientific thinking and engagement
Provide a better understanding of the department (scientific objectives, organization, discussions with the management team, etc.)

The IJPB organizing committee is composed of PhD students and postdoctoral researchers:
> Andréa Castaldi, "Strigolactones and Allelochemicals Signaling" SAS team
> Damien Fuster, Symbiotic Nitrogen Acquisition in Plant-Microbe Systems" SYNAPS team 
> Clara Gilloteau, "Senescence, Autophagy, Nutrient Recycling and Nitrogen Use Efficiency" SATURNE team
