Dear colleagues,

After the successful edition of ELB2018, we are glad to welcome you in Reims for the third edition of Exploring Lignocellulosic Biomass: challenges and opportunities for bioeconomy - ELB 2020, 23-26 June 2020.

ELB 2020 is chaired by the French Research Institute for Agriculture, Food and Environment (INRAE) and the University of Reims Champagne Ardenne, together with AgroParisTech, CentraleSupélec and Neoma Business School.

Organized in 4 scientific sessions covering all aspects of lignocellulose architecture, transformation and valorisation, with a special emphasis on interdisciplinary approaches related to bioeconomy and digital techniques to tackle environmental challenges.

We thus invite you to join us in the superb city of Reims, which hosts three exceptional UNESCO World Heritage sites and Champagne Houses.

Registration and abstract submission will open in December 2019.

Best regards,

On behalf of the organising and scientific committees,
Dr Gabriel Paës, Chairman of ELB 2020,
