Meeting: FASEB Conference on Mechanisms in Plant Development,August 11-16, 2013, Saxtons River, Vermont, USA. This project will promote interactions between biologists who are using different scientific approaches to study plant developmental mechanisms. These interactions will take place at the 13th International meeting on Mechanisms in Plant Development, which will be held from August 11th-16th, 2013 in Saxtons River, Vermont, USA. This meeting is the only regular international conference devoted entirely to plant developmental biology, which is the study of how plants grow and how they are able to make different structures, such as leaves, fruits and grains, that are critical to our agricultural economy. Discoveries in developmental biology may help in the design of better crops for food and biofuel production, as well as reduce the impact of agriculture on the environment. This particular conference is special because the small size and secluded location of the meeting are higly conducive to informal discussion of new ideas and emerging concepts, and also because it will support the involvement of early career and minority scientists. The results of the conference will be widely disseminated through a written summary and slides to be used by meeting participants to spread the exciting new findings presented.

会议：FASEB植物发育机制会议，2013年8月11日至16日，萨克顿河，佛蒙特州，美国。该项目将促进生物学家之间的互动，他们使用不同的科学方法来研究植物发育机制。这些相互作用将在第13届国际植物发育机制会议上进行，该会议将于2013年8月11日至16日在美国佛蒙特州的萨克顿河举行。这次会议是唯一一次完全致力于植物发育生物学的定期国际会议，植物发育生物学研究植物如何生长以及它们如何能够形成对我们农业经济至关重要的不同结构，如叶子，果实和谷物。 发育生物学的发现可能有助于设计更好的粮食作物和生物燃料生产，以及减少农业对环境的影响。 这个特别的会议是特殊的，因为会议的小规模和隐蔽的位置非常有利于新思想和新兴概念的非正式讨论，也因为它将支持早期职业和少数民族科学家的参与。会议的结果将通过书面摘要和幻灯片广泛传播，供与会者用来传播令人振奋的新发现。
