And remember the phenotyping workshop tomorrow, the videos for the workshop are up at https://t.co/mp0eW5RDGy and questions can be posed in advance at https://t.co/bu9X2bttpx. Looking forward to seeing people getting good questions to the experts on the panels!

[Rooting2021 @rooting2021]

Hope everyone is having a great meeting, it seems to be from all the tweets and questions at Q&A. As we approach the end of the week, 2 bits of housekeeping, first big thanks to Vicki Bryan and the MU conference office and the @ClubIsrr ambassadors for keeping us going…

[Rooting2021 @rooting2021]

Get your abstract in! We’re looking forward to selecting some great talks.

Ahhh our mistake try @ISRR2021

[Rooting2021 @rooting2021]

We're really excited at the programme and hope you will be as well

We'll see you all in May (24th -28th).

Visit the sites, start registering, submit those abstracts and spread the word!

[Rooting2021 @rooting2021]

And on the Friday we'll be having a Phenotyping workshop showcasing cutting edge techniques, with video demonstrations and a live question and answer session with experts in the field from Europe and the US

[Rooting2021 @rooting2021]

And of course we have poster sessions! It's the new pandemic world, so it will be slightly different from before of course, but we're working hard to make it a great experience for everyone with 3 poster sessions on each full day, across time zones

[Rooting2021 @rooting2021]

Out of an abundance of caution, we plan to reschedule the conference and will be discussing with sponsors, and ISRD potential dates, currently provisionally targeting June 2021, dates to be confirmed. More to follow as we hear 2/2

[Rooting2021 @rooting2021]

BREAKING: It will have escaped no ones attention that we're currently in the middle of a global pandemic caused by COVID-19. This is predicted to peak in the middle of June in the UK. Obviously this is going to have implications on the running of the conference 1/2
