Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The 11th International Workshop on Anthocyanins and Betalains (IWA&B 2024) will be held at the University of Leeds from Tuesday 17th to Thursday 19th September 2024 (https://eu.eventscloud.com/website/12992/home/). This will be the first time the conference has been held in the United Kingdom, and it is the leading conference in anthocyanins and betalains research with academics from all over the world.
The conference will include both oral presentations and posters covering the subject of anthocyanins and betalains in the following areas:
- Biosynthesis and genetics.
- Ecology, function and evolution.
- Health and nutrition.
- Phytochemistry and analysis.
- Application in food and industry.
The proposal for this Special Issue is a selection of the best papers from the conference can be put forward for submission to the journal special issue. Every attendee is entitled to a 20% discount on APC upon acceptance of their papers.
We hope you will be able to join this exciting event and support us in making it a success.
You may choose our Joint Special Issue in Molecules.
Prof. Dr. Richard S Blackburn
Guest Editor
