EWRS Webinar Series 2026: Question-Driven Weed Science-Part 2
The second part of the Question-Driven Weed Science webinar series continues the initiative of introducing young researchers to topics and approaches that are often insufficiently covered in formal education, yet are encountered from the very beginning of their research careers.
Participants will have the opportunity to become familiar with different approaches in weed science through concrete research examples, methodological challenges, and the speakers experience. The series is designed as a space for knowledge exchange, questions, and open discussion on the challenges that accompany the first steps in weed science research.
All webinars can be accessed directly via the following Zoom link (maximum 100 participants): https://us06web.zoom.us/j/81285468387
