About Nematology professional development masterclasses
Nematodes are the most numerous multicellular animals on Earth but other than the few species which parasitise humans and their livestock and pets, these microscopic worms receive limited attention.
These workshops are designed for scientists and science students who want to learn more about the fascinating world beneath our feet. Professionals who work in agriculture are also welcome, as they will learn how the soil nematode community can be used to assess the biological health of a soil, and become familiar with the tactics farmers can use to reduce losses from nematode pests.
These masterclasses are free to attend; there is no cost. However, places are very limited. Please submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) to Dr Gurion Ang via email outlining how your practice or your studies would benefit from attending these masterclasses.
