Sunday, August 6, begins with the plenary “Highlights of New and Emerging Research on Biomolecular Condensates in Plants,” followed by workshops on topics ranging from the impacts of AI in scientific publication to the role of science communication in innovative agricultural technologies. The afternoon includes concurrent symposia like “Roots, Shoots, and Leaves: New Approaches to Studying Vegetative Development” and “From the Outside In: Plant Signal Transduction.”
The plenary “Climate Change and the Future of Agriculture” opens activities on Monday, August 7. Next up are workshops covering plant scientist spotlights in the classroom and beyond, self-advocacy and more. The afternoon is again packed with concurrent symposia addressing domestication of wild species and minor crops, cellular quality control and a broad range of other topics.
Tuesday, August 8, again opens with a plenary, “Intercellular Communication in Plants: The Long and Short of It,” followed by workshops on leadership, finding mentors and complying with U.S. regulations on genetically engineered and genome edited plants. Orphan crops, “plant magic” and transcriptional regulation are just some of the topics addressed in the afternoon’s concurrent symposia.
You’ll want to be sure to stick around for the thought-provoking plenary on Wednesday, August 9, “Diving Deep Space: Plant Biology for the Moon, Mars, and Beyond.”
