The 2007 Plant Metabolic Engineering Gordon Conference & Graduate Research Seminar will take place July 15-20, 2007, at the Tilton School, Tilton, New Hampshire. Started in 2005 with a very successful gathering of over 130 scientists from all over the World, the conference will continue to provide a setting for developing multidisciplinary collaborations essential to unravel the dynamic complexity of plant metabolic networks and advance basic and applied research in plant metabolic engineering. Similar to the 2005 meeting, it is expected that the number of speakers and participants to number approximately 130-150 from the US and abroad, at all career levels, and represent institutions from academia, industry, private institutes, and federal laboratories. Concerted efforts to recruit women, persons with disabilities, and scientists from underrepresented groups as speakers and participants have been expanded. For instance, in addition to the 2007 GRC, a Graduate Research Seminar (GRS) in Plant Metabolic Engineering immediately before the GRC is developed, which may serve as a template for future meetings. The GRS provides a unique venue for junior scientists (Ph.D. students and postdoctoral fellows) to present their research in a more relaxed setting in front of their peers and is designed to reach out to under-represented groups of students and pre-professionals. The Gordon Conferences continue to be considered among the top scientific meetings worldwide, attracting top researchers in settings that are conducive to developing interactions and exploring new horizons. Participants to the GRS will be encouraged and expected to stay for the GRC, further enhancing the educational component of this conference. It is expected that the GRS will have a significant impact in attracting top junior scientists to the plant metabolic engineering field.

2007年植物代谢工程戈登会议和研究生研究研讨会将于2007年7月15日至20日在新罕布什尔州蒂尔顿的蒂尔顿学校举行。始于2005年，全世界有130多家科学家的聚会非常成功，该会议将继续为开发多学科合作提供设置，以揭示植物代谢网络的动态复杂性，并提高植物代谢工程的基础和应用研究。与2005年的会议类似，预计在美国和国外，在所有职业级别上的发言人和参与者人数约为130-150，代表来自学术界，行业，私人机构和联邦实验室的机构。随着演讲者和参与者的发展，招募妇女，残疾人和科学家的一致努力已被扩大。例如，除了2007年GRC之外，在开发GRC之前，植物代谢工程的研究生研究研讨会（GRS）可能是未来会议的模板。 GRS为初级科学家（博士学位和博士后研究员）提供了一个独特的场所，以在同龄人面前更加轻松的环境中介绍他们的研究，并旨在与代表性不足的学生和培训前的人群接触。戈登会议继续被视为全球顶级科学会议之一，吸引了有利于开发互动和探索新视野的环境中的顶级研究人员。鼓励GRS的参与者将被鼓励，并期望留在GRC上，从而进一步增强本次会议的教育部分。预计GRS将对吸引顶级初级科学家进入植物代谢工程领域产生重大影响。
