PLANT CANADA 2024
Tri-Society (CSHS-CPS-CSA) – Ottawa 2023
The CSHS is proud to be part of the 2024 Plant Canada Conference in Winnipeg, MB. The
CSHS will organize 5 concurrent sessions targeting topics including a Cannabis symposium
(sessions 1 & 2), Root Crops (session 3), Fruits (session 4) and Vegetables (session 5)
sessions.
In 2025, our annual meeting will be held in the west coast region, with Dr. Beatrice Amyotte and
Dr. Simone Castellarin as the chairs. If you are interested in participating in the
organization of the conference, please contact the CSHS secretary
(Julie.laleunesse@agr.gc.ca).
CSHS Student Committee
Students are an integral part of the CSHS and their involvement in the Society is important and
valued. A Student board was implemented in 2016 within the Society to support students’
initiatives and the Student Committee has so far been very busy.
Sarah Drury (Current CSHS Student Representative and Student Committee Chair) and past
student committee chairs have organized and will organize the student social event for CSHS
and all of the societies attending the Plant Canada Conferences. We are encouraging all
students to participate in this fun event, which will include motivational talks, time to
network with other students and plant science trivia!
