We are thrilled to welcome you to the 2026 edition of the Plant Cell Wall Meeting, returning to the vibrant city of Porto after our memorable gathering here in 2010.

Porto, a UNESCO World Heritage city, is known for its rich history, warm hospitality, wonderful food and wines, and breathtaking views over the Douro River – the perfect setting to foster scientific exchange, collaboration, and inspiration.

The Plant Cell Wall Meeting has a longstanding tradition of bringing together researchers from around the world to share the latest discoveries and emerging trends in plant cell wall biology. The 2026 meeting will continue this tradition, offering an exciting scientific program, opportunities for early-career researchers, and space for stimulating discussions in a friendly and inclusive atmosphere.

We look forward to welcoming both familiar and new faces to Porto for what promises to be an engaging and unforgettable event. Stay tuned for more details, and mark your calendars!

See you in Porto!
