The primary goal of this conference is to bring together chemists, molecular biologists, plant and animal physiologists, ecologists, and human nutritionists to disseminate and discuss information on cutting-edge research in these various areas, and to continue to advocate and facilitate interdisciplinary research interactions. The program devised for this conference, presenting a coherent set of concepts and paradigms, will consist of five formal sessions covering 1) human interactions with plant volatiles, 2) the function of vegetative volatiles in the physiology and ecology of the plant, 3) the function of floral volatiles in the physiology and ecology of the plant, 4) biochemistry of plant volatiles, and 5) the use of instrumentation in studying plant volatiles. This meeting will be highly interdisciplinary, and the topics range from highly technical to those with general interests, for example the usages of plant volatiles in human affairs (e.g., foods, perfumes). By bringing diverse group of researchers together, this conference has the potential to have a major impact on many separate disciplines. Special efforts have been made to obtain a diverse and balanced group of speakers and to attract scientists at the early stages of their career, with emphasis on women and minorities, and have outlined specific steps to recruit and fund such participants.

这次会议的主要目标是将化学家、分子生物学家、动植物生理学家、生态学家和人类营养学家聚集在一起，传播和讨论这些不同领域的前沿研究信息，并继续倡导和促进跨学科研究互动。为这次会议设计的计划，提出了一套连贯的概念和范例，将由五个正式会议组成，涉及1)人类与植物挥发物的相互作用，2)营养挥发物在植物生理和生态中的作用，3)花挥发物在植物生理和生态中的作用，4)植物挥发物的生物化学，以及5)仪器在研究植物挥发物中的应用。这次会议将是高度跨学科的，议题从高度技术性的到普遍感兴趣的，例如植物挥发物在人类事务中的使用(例如，食品、香水)。通过将不同的研究人员小组聚集在一起，这次会议有可能对许多不同的学科产生重大影响。已作出特别努力，争取多样化和平衡的发言者群体，并在其职业生涯的早期阶段吸引科学家，重点是妇女和少数群体，并概述了招募和资助这类参与者的具体步骤。
