Description

Professor John Barnett FLS, Past President of the IAWS and active IAWA Member retired some years ago from the University of Reading following a very productive career as developmental plant anatomist, overall wood scientist, and successful science administrator and editor. At this joint meeting a number of John’s colleagues and friends will review recent developments on his pet subjects in wood science and plant development such as cell wall ultrastructure, the cambium, reaction wood, and various applied aspects of wood anatomy. John Barnett himself will present the prestigious Academy Lecture of the IAWS. In addition the programme caters for a wide range of contributed papers and posters on xylem by members and fellows of the three organizing societies.

Sponsored by The Linnean Society of London, International Academy of Wood Science, International Association of Wood Anatomists
