GVENCK ESALQ

The Genetics and Plant Breeding Group “Prof. Roland Vencovsky” (GVENCK) is formed by graduate students in Genetics and Plant Breeding at “Luiz de Queiroz” College of Agriculture (ESALQ/USP), under coordination of Professor Dr. José Baldin Pinheiro. Our mission is to integrate academics, professors and professionals, focusing on preparing future geneticists and breeders.

Our main activities are:

    - Organization of scientific events;
    - Promote discussions on relevant Genetic and Plant Breeding issues;
    - Technical visits to companies and public research institutions;
    - Promote the guidance of young talents under training from the “alumni voice”, in which the alumni with consolidated careers will share professional experiences;
    - Promote interaction opportunities between students, professors and researchers outside the University;
    - Partnerships with companies and public institutions.
