Students from the Centre SÈVE participated in a summer school in Brazil.
From July 10 to 18, 2026, twelve students from the Centre SÈVE participated in the Brazil-Centre SÈVE Summer School in Plant Biology, held at the Universidade Estadual de Londrina and IDR-Parana in Londrina, Brazil.
This summer school was designed to deepen scientific knowledge, broaden cultural horizons, and build an international professional network. Participants explored three major themes: Root systems, agroforestry, and carbon allocation; Soil microbiome, nutrient cycling, and soil health; Plant pathology, biocontrol, and plant-microbe interactions; Plant reproduction, seed biology, and genetic improvement; Emerging technologies, production systems, and data-driven agriculture. The program includes student presentations as well as tours of state-of-the-art laboratories and agricultural facilities (such as those conducting research on coffee, soybeans, and citrus fruits), all complemented by cultural activities.
A memorable and formative experience for the next generation of scientists from here and abroad
