Most importantly, they also participated in the University Alumni Networking social at Plant Health 2025 by hosting a table. This event typically included all US based universities with a large plant pathology program. In my experience, Zamorano University might have been the first foreign university to participate in the alumni socials. This event is important to our members because it allows networking with faculty and students we studied with. As a Past President of APS, I was delighted to see Zamorano University participate with a large body of students and scholars.\u201d\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7e84746 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"7e84746\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"338\" height=\"403\" src=\"https:\/\/zamorano.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Niklaus_Grunwald_Carolina-Avellaneda.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-1005120\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zamorano.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Niklaus_Grunwald_Carolina-Avellaneda.jpg 338w, https:\/\/zamorano.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Niklaus_Grunwald_Carolina-Avellaneda-252x300.jpg 252w, https:\/\/zamorano.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Niklaus_Grunwald_Carolina-Avellaneda-10x12.jpg 10w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 338px) 100vw, 338px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fa837c4 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"fa837c4\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d5c7d0c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d5c7d0c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tParticipation in Plant Health 2025 strengthens Zamorano\u2019s position as a university of reference in plant pathology research and education, expanding opportunities for academic networking, scientific collaboration, and international visibility for our community.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Hawai\u2018i Convention Center (Honolulu, Hawai\u2018i) hosted Plant Health 2025, the annual meeting of the American Phytopathological Society (APS), which brought together more than 1,000 professionals in the field of plant pathology.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":1005118,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"content-type":"","inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1005116","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-zamorano-noticias"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/52.15.254.18\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1005116","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/52.15.254.18\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/52.15.254.18\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/52.15.254.18\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/11"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/52.15.254.18\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1005116"}],"version-history":[{"count":17,"href":"http:\/\/52.15.254.18\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1005116\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1005176,"href":"http:\/\/52.15.254.18\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1005116\/revisions\/1005176"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/52.15.254.18\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1005118"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/52.15.254.18\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1005116"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/52.15.254.18\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1005116"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/52.15.254.18\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1005116"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
