The International Conference on Plant Nanotechnology 2024 will take place from 14 to 16 October in Poznań, Poland. Dedicated to the latest advances at the interface of nanotechnology and plant science, this conference will serve as a platform for scientists, young researchers, policymakers,
and industry professionals to meet, exchange ideas, and establish cooperation. World-renowned scientists who are leaders in the field will be invited to give keynote lectures and invited talks
on selected topics. The event will be held entirely in English.
Key topics to be covered include:
+ Nanomaterials for sustainable agriculture,
+ Green nanotechnologies,
+ Nanosensors in agriculture,
+ Plant nanotechnology-biotechnology interfaces,
+ Nanomaterial-microbial interactions,
+ Nanotoxicity and food safety.
