Agrisera blog

Professor Barry Bruce from Unviersity of Tennessee-Knoxville, has recently visited Agrisera.  We spent two intensive days with our guest, including a special seminar at KBC at Umeå University.  It was a valuable time, filled with discussions, new ideas and a bit of sight seeing too. Welcome back!

18th of May is a special day all over the world - all who are interested in fascinating world of plants are welcome to universities, botanical gardens and other places to learn more about their unique world. Agrisera contributed to this year Plant Fascination Day at Umeaå Plant Science Centre and offered a contest for kids to design their own antibody and a quize for adults: what do antibodies do in plant research? It was a great day filled with interaction with curious visitors in various ages.

Agrisera was one of the companies who joined Finnish Plant Science Days in Helsinki, on Viiki Campus. We enjoyed meeting our Finnish collaboration partners, all who came by to talk about plant antibodies or just to taste our amazing candy (which does not contain any antibodies!). The spring weather was fanstastic as well as a very interesting guided tour of greenhouses in Helsinki's Botanical Garden just before the conference dinner. Thank you!
