Do you want to be part of a PhD discussion group on crop physiology, photosynthesis, plant modelling & sensing and plant product quality? Then join one of our FLOP (Frontier Literature in Plant Physiology) PhD discussion groups! In our FLOP meetings, PhD students meet once a month to discuss literature related to horticultural physiology. You can decide to join one of the three themes:

1. FLOP Crop physiology (facilitated by dr. Ep Heuvelink, ep.heuvelink@wur.nl) , sanja.selakovic@wur.nl
2. FLOP Photosynthesis (facilitated by dr. Liana Acevedo, liana.acevedosiaca@wur.nl)
3. FLOP Modelling (facilitated by dr. Cristina Zepeda, cristina.zepeda@wur.nl en Dr. Nilson Vieira Junior nilson.vieirajunior@wur.nl)
4. FLOP Plant product quality (facilitated by dr. Julian Verdonk, julian.verdonk@wur.nl)
5. FLOP Ecophysiology (facilitated by dr. Paul Kusuma paul.kusuma@wur.nl and dr. Silvère Vialet-Chabrand silvere.vialet-chabrand@wur.nl)

For each meeting, one PhD student prepares a discussion on either a published paper (literature discussion) or on her/his own manuscript or project proposal (writing discussion). The aim is to reflect critically on the content and to broaden your knowledge on the subject. It is up to the PhD student to decide what to discuss.
