April 27, 2026PhD Position Announcement: Impact of Fires on Chromium Speciation in Tropical Agroecosystems
We are pleased to announce a fully funded 3-year PhD position within the ANR FIRE project (ANR-25-CE34-5568-01), a collaboration between CIRAD (France), CEREGE (France), and the University of Vienna (Austria). The project focuses on the fire-induced transformation of chromium (Cr) in tropical soils, specifically the conversion of non-toxic Cr(III) to carcinogenic Cr(VI) in agricultural systems at CEREGE (Aix-en-Provence, France).

1st International Scientific Conference & Workshop on the Rhizotest method
It is our great pleasure to announce the 1st International Scientific Conference & Workshop on the Rhizotest method which will be held from September 7th to 10th, 2026 at Cirad in Montpellier, France. Results achieved with the Rhizotest method has been presented several times in previous Icobte-Ichmet conferences. Therefore, we think this event could be of interest for the Istee community. Please visit the event Website and note important dates.
