General Information
Announcement of Japan-Taiwan Plant Biology 2026 (JTPB2026)
The Japanese Society of Plant Physiologists (JSPP) and the Taiwan Society of Plant Biologists (TSPB) have been strengthening international collaboration by holding regular joint international conferences since 2017. We are pleased to announce the Japan-Taiwan Plant Biology 2026 (JTPB2026) to be held in March 2026, seven years since the last Japan-Taiwan Plant Biology 2019 (JTPB2019) was held in Nagoya, Japan.
The number of JSPP members working as researchers and principal investigators in Taiwan is recently increasing. JSPP is currently promoting the MIRAI 2030 project, to enhance the international presence of Japanese plant science and the overseas expansion of JSPP members. The strengthening of exchanges between Japan and Taiwan is one of the major drivers of such MIRAI 2030 project. The theme of JTPB2026 is “Plant Environmental Adaptation: Japan–Taiwan Collaborations Towards Sustainable Futures.” We hope that you will actively participate in JTPB2026, and we look forward to active discussions and exchanges with plant scientists between Japan and Taiwan for our fruitful future.
