11th International Conference CASEE 2020 in Prague

 

The conference entitled “CASEE Universities as laboratories for new paradigms in life sciences and related disciplines“ goes beyond the proclamation about “facing challenges”. The aim is to document that CASEE universities and their faculties already address environmental, economic and societal challenges in highly innovative way. The conference will highlight oral and poster presentation demonstrating that challenges rotating around agriculture, forestry and rural development, food production and consumption, environmental issues and climatic change, renewable resources, bioeconomy, are taken seriously in Central and South-Eastern Europe. Contributions from Ph.D. students and young researchers documenting novelties in research conducted by CASEE universities are highly needed to show for the rest of the world that this region of Europe has a potential for innovations in research. Moreover, the conference will also serve as the forum to exchange ideas and best practices how to be successful in getting research grants or submitting papers in prestigious journals. This year the conference will be co-organized with ATAE (Actual Topics in Agricultural Engineering) symposium group.
