Turku is set for an invasion of plant biologists in late June, all of whom share a special interest in a normally unexceptional plant.
Nursing work has taught Maarit Ahtiala and Marja-Liisa Ylitalo-Airo how to adapt to surprising situations. The ability to deal with pressure and react quickly are also advantages when organising international congresses.
