Scheduling Presentations and Events - Please Read

Due to staffing limitations (and lingering COVID-19 concerns), the PDDC continues to focus its efforts on providing presentations on a range of plant disease topics via remote learning. 

However, the PDDC will consider in-person requests on a limited basis.

Visit our Talks for the General Public page to learn more about the full range of topics that the PDDC offers.

Visit our Plant Disease Talks page to learn more about the PDDC-sponsored 2023 Plant Disease Talks.

Call Brian (608-262-2863) or email him (pddc@wisc.edu) to discuss the topic and learning option that best suits your needs.

You can learn more about the current status of PDDC services on our Services page.
