Conference Description

To allow the GRS chairs enough time to review submitted abstracts, please submit your abstract via your MyGRC account by or before Friday, April 1st.

The Gordon Research Seminar on Plant Molecular Biology is a unique forum for graduate students, post-docs, and other scientists with comparable levels of experience and education to present and exchange new data and cutting edge ideas.

The focus of the 2022 GRS will be molecular and systems approaches that enable new insights into plant biology and facilitate plant engineering. An emphasis will be placed on innovative experimental and computational approaches that facilitate these studies. Graduate students and post-docs are invited to present and discuss highlights of their latest findings. In addition, there will be a discussion section focused on the transition from graduate and post-doc studies to further careers in science.

Related Meeting

This GRS will be held in conjunction with the "Plant Molecular Biology" Gordon Research Conference (GRC). Those interested in attending both meetings must submit an application for the GRC in addition to an application for the GRS. Refer to the associated GRC program page for more information.
