The Regulation of Plant Lipids in Signaling

The Gordon Research Seminar on Plant Lipids: Structure, Metabolism and Function 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 both basic and applied research on plant lipids with a focus on lipid synthesis and signaling. We will explore novel developments in lipidomics and modeling, lipid membrane composition and architecture, the role of lipids in protein post-translational modifications and cell signaling, and bioenergy and industrial lipid development.

Application Instructions

The seminar will feature approximately 10 talks and 2 poster sessions. All attendees are expected to actively participate in the GRS, either by giving an oral presentation or presenting a poster. Therefore, all applications must include an abstract.
