The Plant Sensing, Response and Adaptation to the Environment meeting will be held Jan. 11-16 at Big Sky Resort in Big Sky, Montana. This meeting brings together ecologists, geneticists and biochemists all interested in integrating systems approaches, the simultaneous experimental investigation of the many different complex interacting molecular components of cells and organisms. To understand the mechanisms that drive the appropriate growth responses under a wide range of environmental conditions, plant physiology is pursuing a level of sophistication that requires the field to move into such systems-type approaches. A major goal of this meeting is to excite a new generation of multidisciplinary students to study the basis of phenotypic plasticity, i.e., how plants with the same genome give rise to different characteristics. In the future, such studies may explain how to more efficiently create ethanol-based fuels and will be crucial for understanding the consequences of global warming and climate change on plant life. This meeting will enhance infrastructure by fostering networking and initiation of collaborations. We anticipate the following educational benefits: acquaint trainees and investigators new to the field with the state-of-the-art; critical scientific feedback; and career development for trainees and new investigators, including opportunities both to see successful scientists presenting cutting-edge science and to network with prospective mentors and others who might contribute to their scientific and professional development. Invited speakers are top-notch scientists who will present unpublished results. Keystone Symposia provides an internationally recognized platform as well as resources to ensure the success of this meeting.

植物感知、环境响应和环境适应会议将于1月11日至16日在蒙大拿州大天空的大天空度假村举行。这次会议汇集了生态学家、遗传学家和生物化学家，他们都对整合系统方法感兴趣，系统方法是同时对细胞和生物体的许多不同的复杂相互作用的分子成分进行实验研究。为了了解在广泛的环境条件下驱动适当生长反应的机制，植物生理学正在追求一定程度的复杂性，这要求该领域进入这种系统类型的方法。这次会议的一个主要目标是激发新一代多学科的学生学习表型可塑性的基础，即具有相同基因组的植物如何产生不同的特征。未来，这样的研究可能会解释如何更有效地制造基于乙醇的燃料，并将对理解全球变暖和气候变化对植物生命的后果至关重要。这次会议将通过促进联网和启动协作来加强基础设施。我们期待以下教育益处：使新进入该领域的受训者和研究人员熟悉最新技术；批判性科学反馈；以及受训者和新研究人员的职业发展，包括有机会看到成功的科学家介绍尖端科学，并与未来的导师和其他可能对他们的科学和专业发展做出贡献的人建立网络。受邀的演讲者是顶尖的科学家，他们将展示未发表的成果。Keystone研讨会为确保本次会议的成功提供了一个国际公认的平台和资源。
