Abstract

The Gordon Research Seminar on Plant-Herbivore Interaction is a unique forum for graduate students, post-docs, and other scientists with comparable levels of experience and education to present and exchange new data and cutting edge ideas. Calling to action interdisciplinary perspectives, plant-herbivore interactions play a central role in all food webs, including our own. We aim to facilitate interaction among field ecology, modelling, and molecular technologies towards deeper understanding and innovative solutions. The second GRS on Plant-Herbivore Interaction offers a modern platform for young scientists to present their findings and profit from stimulating discussions. In addition, a mentoring session is included to discuss with established scientists to gain insights into various career stages and options.
