GPC/SEB Plant Section Symposium on Stress Resilience

I’m writing to let you know that registration for the Global Plant Council/SEB Plant Section Symposium on Stress Resilience is now open. This Symposium will take place on 23–25 October 2015, in Foz do Iguacu, Brazil. Please can you circulate this information to your members? If you have a website or social media accounts it would be great if you could share this information there too.

The meeting aims to bring together experts from across the world to discuss current research efforts in plant stress resilience, showcase new approaches and technologies and build new networks and collaborations that will contribute to global efforts to develop crops that are better able to deal with fluctuating and stressful environmental conditions.

Information about the Symposium can be found here: http://www.sebiology.org/meetings/Plant_Symposium_2015/Plant_2015.html, and the preliminary programme is here: http://www.sebiology.org/meetings/Plant_Symposium_2015/programme.html.

To register for the conference, please click here: http://www.sebiology.org/meetings/Plant_Symposium_2015/registration.html – register by 3rd September for an earlybird discount!

To submit an abstract for the meeting, please click here: http://www.sebiology.org/meetings/Plant_Symposium_2015/abstracts.html – the deadline for abstract submission is 21st August 2015.

This event immediately precedes the International Plant Molecular Biology conference (25-30 October), also in Foz do Iguacu, which also includes several sessions on stress.

Please find attached a poster and a copy of the preliminary program. If you have any questions please contact myself or the GPC Executive Director Ruth Bastow: ruth@globalplantcouncil.org.
