PhenPlasPlants 2025 - International Conference on Phenotypic Plasticity
PhenPlasPlants 2025
International Conference on Phenotypic Plasticity in Plants
9 - 10 October 2025 in Potsdam
Venue: WIS | Wissenschaftsetage im Bildungsforum Potsdam
We are delighted to invite you to our International Conference on Phenotypic Plasticity in Plants, in Potsdam in October 2025!
This two-day conference is organized by our Collaborative Research Centre (CRC 1644), which explores the mechanisms, constraints and evolution of plant phenotypic plasticity in various environmental conditions.
Understanding phenotypic plasticity - where a given genotype can generate different phenotypes in varying environments - is essential, especially in a rapidly changing world. Our interdisciplinary research programme aims to tackle these challenges.
This conference will highlight the latest research in the field, with talks from scientists at all stages of their career, engaging/interactive poster sessions, and networking opportunities over coffee or lunch.
As members of CRC 1644, we especially encourage early career researchers to sign up for talks or poster presentations, providing a great opportunity to contribute and collaborate!
Registration is free, with limited capacity.
We look forward to welcoming you to Potsdam!

About our CRC:
This interdisciplinary programme comprises 18 projects led by 20 Principal Investigators from the University of Potsdam, the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Plant Physiology (MPIMP), the Hasso Plattner Institute (HPI), the Leibniz Institute of Vegetable and Ornamental Crops (IGZ), the Humboldt University (HU) and the University of Cologne.
By integrating genetics, cell and developmental biology, physiology, evolutionary biology, ecology, computational biology and mathematical modelling, we will achieve a step change in our understanding of phenotypic plasticity as an evolving trait of critical importance for the fate of plant populations in the face of environmental change. Our consortium is structured into a Project A area, which studies plasticity to conditions, and a Project B area, which studies plasticity to resources. The central Project Z2 ensures synergy through data integration across the CRC.
