The Journées du Centre SÈVE 2022 were the proof of Centre SÈVE’s
interest in promoting the cooperation and partnership with international
researchers. During the Réunion Conjointe Centre SÈVE-SFR
NorVége (France), professors from Quebec (Université de
Sherbrooke, Agriculture and Agrifood Canada, Université du Québec à
Trois-Rivières, Université Laval and McGill University) presented their
work beside researchers from France universities (UniLaSalle-Rouen,
Université de Caen Normandie and Université de Rouen Normandie). Also,
the networking hour brought to the students the possibility to
participate at the Summer Schools in Morocco (2023) and Cameroun
(2024).
At the Student Symposium, 24 students presented their
master’s and doctorate projects in the sessions: (A) Microbial
interactions and resistance, (B) Plant sciences, (C) Agriculture
productions and environment. Congratulations to winners of best
presentation!
