East Europeans visit CEEM
August 18-19, 2003, the CEEM project in collaboration with
Michigan State University (MSU) and the United States Department
of Agriculture-Foreign Agriculture Service (USDA-FAS) short
course on agriculture biotechnology hosted a two day workshop
for 25 participants from east Europe, representing 9 countries,
and 5 faculty/staff members from MSU.
Participants were given an overview of the CEEM project and
were able to see the field trials of the potato improvement
program a Mount Pleasant and the potato late blight field
trials at Freeville. This provided participants with an opportunity
to observe technology research and development, and project
collaboration at Cornell University.
