Unraveling Plant Stress Responses Using Multidisciplinary Approaches

The Gordon Research Seminar on Salt and Water Stress in Plants 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 this meeting is to have insightful presentations and discussions concerning salt and water stress in plants as it pertains to our ecological landscape, our agricultural systems, and our fundamental understanding of plant biology. This GRS will have four sessions:

1. Exploring plant diversity for favorable traits in stress-prone environments

2. Molecular mechanisms underlying stress tolerance

3. Insights from multi-omics approaches to understand stress responses

4. Novel methods for plant phenotyping and data analysis
