Share your open positions and meetings!
Recently, SPPS introduced a new service to its members, so they can easily share open positions and meetings with the plant science community. Unfortunately, we have so far only received a few postings from you.

It is very easy to use, and you can post your positions or meetings on the web in just a few clicks. Check out this tutorial or read the short summary below and you will be ready to post!
