The 5th PhD Meeting in Plant Biology (5PMPB) is an international meeting for PhD students and early-career postdoctoral researchers, which will take place in Granada, Spain, on the morning of 1 June 2027, as part of the Iberian Plant Biology 2027 Congress (IPB-27).

The 5PMPB is a biennial meeting organised by Spanish and Portuguese PhD students, with the aim of providing young researchers in plant biology with a dedicated forum to present their work, exchange ideas and establish connections with other researchers at a similar stage of their careers.

PhD students and early-career postdoctoral researchers (within 2–3 years of completing their PhD) will have the opportunity to present their research in a friendly and stimulating scientific environment.

Participants will be able to present their work through a short flash talk (2–4 minutes) accompanied by a poster, providing an opportunity to share their findings, discuss their research and receive feedback from fellow participants and researchers.

All abstracts submitted to the 5PMPB will be reviewed by the 5PMPB Committee, in coordination with the Scientific Committee of IPB-27.

Awards

The best presentation in each session will receive a 5PMPB award certificate.

Registration

PhD students and early-career postdoctoral researchers wishing to participate in the 5th PhD Meeting should indicate their interest during the IPB-27 registration process.

Participation in the 5PMPB includes access to the scientific programme of the meeting, coffee breaks and lunch on 1 June 2027.
