Internationally renowned scientists will explain and demonstrate key techniques:

Photosynthesis; including gas exchange, chlorophyll fluorescence, isotope partitioning

Plant water relations; including hydraulic conductance, thermal imaging

Plant ‘omic’ techniques; including environmental metabolomics, transcriptomics

Whole plant physiology; including growth, imaging, modelling
