Plans are underway for the next IS-MPMI Congress! Join us July 17–21, 2016, in Portland, Oregon—an affordable, accessible U.S. city. Portland is the perfect launch point for nearby attractions like Mt. Hood, the Columbia River Gorge, the Willamette Valley wine-growing region, and world-renowned gardens. A short plane ride brings you to other major U.S. cities—including Seattle, Washington, and San Francisco, California, with interesting landmarks and cultures all their own. Look for more information in the coming months.
