Celebration Marc Van Montagu’s 90th birthday
On 9 November 2023 we will celebrate Prof. Marc Van Montagu’s 90th birthday. To celebrate his dedication and commitment to science and his role in the scientific landscape of Ghent and far beyond, we will organize a mini-symposium at De Oude Vismijn, Ghent. We will host a few eminent speakers talking about science, its role in society and especially its potential to support a sustainable development of less privileged regions of our planet. The session will end with a networking drink.
Participation in the symposium and networking drink is free but registration is mandatory. After the session, a dinner will be organized for those who are willing to continue the celebration of Marc’s birthday. Be aware that places for both the symposium and the dinner will be limited, we advise you to register as early as possible. Registration for the symposium&reception and payment for the dinner can be done via this website (deadline registration: 25 October).
