Main topics
The six main topics for the ICP2020TURKU will cover recent advances in these fields of modern polyphenol research:
• Structure, reactivity & synthesis
• Bioactivity & bioavailability
• Metabolomics, targeted analysis & big data
• Quality control & standardization
• Biogenesis and functions in plants & ecosystems
• Biomaterials & applied sciences
14 Invited Plenary Talks
The Scientific Committee has invited two plenary talks per each scientific topic. In addition, there will be two plenary talks: the Opening Lecture and the one given by the winner of the GP Scientific Prize. The invited plenaries are given by:
Structure, reactivity & synthesis
• Prof. Hidetoshi Yamada
• Prof. Jean-Philip Lumb
Bioactivity & bioavailability
• Prof. Claudia Nunes dos Santos
• Prof. Patricia Oteiza
Metabolomics, targeted analysis & big data
• Prof. Fulvio Mattivi
• Dr. Justin van der Hooft
Quality control & standardization
• Prof. Jess Reed
• Dr. Jara Pérez-Jiménez
Biogenesis and functions in plants & ecosystems
• Prof. Cathie Martin
• Prof. Teemu Teeri
Biomaterials & applied sciences
• Prof. Helene Fulcrand
• Prof. Frank Caruso
The program includes plenary & regular talks and poster sessions
In addition to the plenary talks, the Scientific Committee will invite over 60 talks on the basis of the 1-page abstracts that are to be submitted at the latest 31 January 2020. All the other participants have the possibility to present their findings in the form of a scientific poster during the separate poster sessions.
Special emphasis on young scientists
The ICP2020TURKU will have separate young scientists sessions aimed at PhD students and postdocs to enhance their possibilities to have oral presentations in an international conference. In addition, PhD students selected by the Scientific Committee can do a rapid 2-min teaser presentation of the main findings of their posters already during the main sessions of the Conference.
