Welcome to ISTAR!

ISTA 10

ISTA 10 took place on 2-6 October 2023 in Madrid, organised by Enrique Lara & team. More info here

ISTA 9 3/4

ISTA 10 was initially planned in August 2020 but due to the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic it has been postponed to August 2021. Then as the waves continued to come in and travel restrictions remained it was postponed to 2022. But hell, this means that a generation of PhD students won't get a chance to interact with colleagues, this can't be ! So we organised an online meeting to keep us in appetite until the big 2022 Niagara ISTA! The meeting wase organised by the Soil Biodiversity Lab in Neuchâtel. With 100 people participating the meeting was a great success!

ISTA 9 took place in Belfast, Northern Ireland on 10-14 September 2018. Many thanks to Helen Roe & team for organising such a nice meeting.
