The International Plant Growth Substances Association (IPGSA) Conference welcomes researchers, academics and students from university and industry interested in the hormones, growth substances and signaling processes of plants. Held once every three years, the IPGSA conference has long provided a stimulating platform for scientists to share and discuss their latest research. The scientific advisory committee is formed of leading scientists appointed by IPGSA Council members elected from diverse countries and therefore promises to deliver an exciting program. We welcome you to the heart of Paris, and to a University venue which will ensure a rewarding experience to all.

You are cordially invited to participate in the 4th International Brachypodium Conference on 25-28 June 2019, in Huesca, Spain. The conference will be organized by the University of Zaragoza - Huesca Campus and will be held at the Huesca Convention Centre. This biennial meeting follows successful conferences in France in 2011, Italy in 2013, USA in 2015, and China in 2017. Brachypodium distachyon has proven to be an outstanding model system for functional, comparative, and other studies in plant biology and crop improvement. Recently, the model has been extended to include other annual and perennial Brachypodium species opening the door to explorations of polyploid genome evolution and perenniality. We will gather to share and discuss the latest discoveries, tool and resource developments, establish collaborations and identify avenues for future research.

The Plant Membrane Biology Workshops started in the early 1970s with a primary focus on transmembrane ion transport in plants, soon becoming the premier international research conference in the field. Over the past three decades these meetings have grown to encompass all aspects of plant membrane biology, from protein structure and membrane traffic to salinity and ecophysiological aspects of membrane function in plants. IWPMB2019 will provide a unique opportunity for scientific discussion and exchange of ideas among researchers at all stages in their careers, and an excellent platform for postgraduate students entering the field of plant membrane biology.

About It is our great pleasure to announce the 5th Conference on Plant Genome Evolution. We are delighted to be holding this biannual event again after very successful meetings in 2011, 2013, 2015, and 2017, where renowned plant researchers gave inspiring talks and where many discussed their latest research in the field. For the 2019 meeting, which will take place again in Sitges (Barcelona), Spain, Sunday September 29th – Tuesday October 1st 2019, we are trying to put together an exciting programme focused on green algae, lower and higher plants, natural variation, domestication, epigenetics, polyploidy, and systems biology, of course all with a strong emphasis on evolution and evolutionary aspects. This fifth PGE meeting will present a unique opportunity to meet and discuss with colleagues, get updated on the newest developments and insights in plant genome evolution, and will provide unique possibilities to network and discuss collaborations. We are delighted to announce that Prof. Ilia Leitch (Kew Gardens, UK) has agreed to deliver the plenary lecture on Sunday, opening the meeting.

Senescence is a complex, genetically programmed phenomenon that constitutes an important biological process for plant fitness in natural ecosystems and for agricultural productivity of crops. While In the absence of stress, senescence is under the control of developmental age, it is also largely affected by diverse environmental cues. The conference addresses major breakthroughs in plant senescence and aging research.
Talks will cover a wide spectrum of aspects of plant aging and senescence including the following:

On April 24-26th 2019, we are organizing a three-days international symposium on Plant Organ Growth, in Bordeaux, France. POGS2019 will be the third meeting after two successful sessions: Plant Organ Growth symposium 2015 in Ghent, Belgium and Plant Organ Growth symposium 2017 in Elche, Spain. The aim of this meeting is to bring together top experts in the field of organ growth regulation in order to share recent advances and expertise on this exciting topic. Our objective is to discuss state of the art knowledge on growth regulation at multiple spatial scales. The meeting, combining lectures from invited speakers and short talks on selected abstracts, will cover three major topics, shoot growth, reproductive organ growth and root growth; and will include a session on the transfer of knowledge from model to crop. The meeting will be held in the beautiful city of Bordeaux and in the Bordeaux University campus (Talence). POGS2019Bdx will be the occasion to visit the wonderful wine city.

The aim of this NYU-Nature Conference is to provide a forward-thinking forum for discussion of new ways to think about what plants of the future may look like, and ways that plant biotechnologies can develop to meet the increasing demand of plant-derived products, including food, energy, and medicine in the context global warming. This conference will broadly cover topics in plant biology and genetics, including synthetic & systems biology, plant-microbe interactions, epigenetics, development and future agriculture. We expect that this conference will foster new collaborations and help to define areas within plant science that are in most need of research attention in order to ensure food and climate security in the future.
Early Registration through February 1, 2019

5th International Conference on Plant Vascular Biology Welcome to Plant Vascular Biology 2019You are invited to the Fifth International Conference on Plant Vascular Biology (PVB2019), 17 – 20 June 2019 at the historic Asilomar Conference Grounds, California, USA. The conference brings together over 150 scientists from around the world to discuss exciting breakthroughs in plant vascular biology and to create bridges between basic and applied research. The meeting will provide important opportunities to exchange novel research on the evolution, development, structure, biochemistry and physiology of xylem and phloem. The scope will also encompass loading and unloading mechanisms, regulation of transport, and short and long distance signaling in relation to environmental responses. A theme of the conference is to highlight the many ways that plant vascular biology intersects with critical problems in agriculture and forestry, such as drought stress, nutrient uptake and utilization, and productivity. A primary goal of the conference is to foster integrated collaborative research using new technologies to make advances into both basic and applied problems surrounding plant vascular biology. This collegial conference will connect leaders in the field of plant vascular biology, early career researchers and the agriculture industry, and provide a stimulating and supportive forum for the development of new research directions and interdisciplinary collaborations The venue is the Asilomar Conference Grounds near Monterey, California. The site is Oceanside, with sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean. Nearby attractions include the Monterey aquarium and Cannery Row, ocean-side parks and nature hikes, and a variety of restaurants, shops and tours. Travel arrivals are through San Francisco International Airport. Online registration will open in November 2018. The deadline for abstract submission for oral presentations is January 31, 2019. Information on travel grants will be posted by January 1, 2019. For further information, please contact sbrady@ucdavis.edu, agroover@fs.fed.us, or tegeder@wsu.edu. Local Organizing Committee:
