THE CONFERENCE

Sixteen years after ECFG 2, the first Dutch hosting of the conference, it now returns to the Netherlands. The conference will be held in Noordwijkerhout which is located in the middle of the famous Dutch tulip fields with their palette of bright colours. The conference centre is situated near Leiden and within close proximity of the capital of the Netherlands, Amsterdam, and the international airport Schiphol.

According to the tradition of the ECFG conferences the program will comprise a number of plenary lectures given by leaders in their fungal genetic research fields. In addition, PhD students and young postdocs will be given the opportunity to present their research as short talks during workshops and/or as a poster. The posters will be displayed throughout the entire conference.

During the meeting there will be ample opportunities to meet with colleagues and friends in a relaxing atmosphere to strengthen collaborations between fungal scientists.

The organising committee looks forward to welcome you in Noordwijkerhout, The Netherlands in 2010.
