The third annual meeting of the "The Silene vortex", a scientific workshop that brings together the international community of researchers working on evolutionary biology with the Silene genus as a model will take place virtually on 13 - 14 October 2025. This annual meeting follows those organised in 2021, 2022 and 2023.

The present meeting will allow presentation of the most recent advances in evolutionary research on Silene, allow inspiration from other model systems, and will favour the exchange of knowledge, the development of new research ideas, the sharing of resources and the creation of new collaborative synergies, and reinforce the existing scientific collaborations on Silene.
