AMPEE5 - Share your research

You are kindly invited to the 5th Annual Meeting on Plant Ecology and Evolution (AMPEE5). AMPEE is an open and lively meeting with a wide range of plant scientists from Belgium and elsewhere. It is an excellent occasion for promoting your research, and for meeting and sharing your research ideas with other botanists. We particularly encourage young researchers to participate, but everyone is welcome. Feel free to circulate this information among your colleagues. We are looking forward to welcoming you at the meeting!

The meeting will take place on Friday the 29th of November 2019 in the Castle of Bouchout, Meise Botanic Garden.

How to get there?

AMPEE is an initiative of the Royal Botanical Society of Belgium and Meise Botanic Garden, who also collectively publish the journal Plant Ecology and Evolution.
