Dear colleagues, dear friends,

The members of the Organizing Committee are honored to invite you to the first edition of the RFMF Thematic School, dedicated to the annotation of plant metabolomes, taking place from September 8 to 12, 2025, at the Domaine du Lazaret in Sète, France.

This event offers a unique opportunity for researchers—whether early-career or experienced—to deepen their knowledge and skills in this crucial field of plant metabolomics. The annotation of metabolomic data presents both technical and conceptual challenges, and we have designed this program to provide you with the methodological and practical tools necessary to address them effectively.

This week will be a valuable scientific retreat, featuring theoretical sessions and hands-on workshops, led by international experts. Our goal is to create a dynamic environment where participants can share their work, compare methodologies, and strengthen connections within our research network.

🌱 Beyond scientific exchanges, this thematic school is also a celebration of the collaborative spirit and friendly atmosphere that define the RFMF. We hope this first edition will inspire you, enrich your research, and foster new collaborations.

We wish you all an excellent week of learning and discovery!
