With the growing complexity of biological research projects In the last decades it has become increasingly important for scientist to communicate and collaborate across geographical and subject boundaries. Thus, young scientist not only need to be trained early in their career to present data at international meetings and discuss it with peers and leaders in the field, but also to organize and chair sessions, as well as to network and identify potential collaboration partners. The PhD School on Plant Development has been set up four years ago to train young scientists in these skills and give them a platform for communication and collaboration. Plant developmental biology is an exciting and fast moving field, which has seen many breakthroughs over the last decades, but apart from this PhD School does not have a signature meeting aimed at international graduate students and young postdocs. Thus, the PhD School on Plant Development plays an important role w/ithin the community of plant scientists and in addition has served to increase the visibility and attractiveness of Germany for young researchers. As the new organization team we are happy and proud to lead this exciting meeting into its fourth year and to invite to the fourth International PhD School on PLANT DEVELOPMENT that will cover many aspects of plant development raging from stem cell control to variations of the developmental program in response to the environment. The meeting is open to anyone who is interested, but mainly invites PhD students and young researchers in the first two years after their PhD. Attendance is restricted to 100 participants. The Organizers reserve the right to select participants based on the submitted abstracts if the meeting is over-subscribed. The International PhD School consists of ten successive sessions that are each introduced by an internationally renowned keynote speaker. The topics of the sessions include all fields of plant development such as stem cells and meristem function, vegetative development, hormone signaling, flowering, gametophyte and germ line formation, seed and fruit development, cell-cycle regulation as well as aspects such as genomic imprinting, evolution, systems biology and mathematical modelling. It is expected that three PhD students/young scientists represent their research data in each of the sessions that shall be chaired by other PhD students/young scientists. It will be at their responsibility to initiate fruitful discussions and guide constructive conversations. Two poster sessions will provide extra time and informal opportunities for discussions.

随着生物研究项目的日益复杂，在过去的几十年里，科学家跨地域和学科界限的交流和合作变得越来越重要。因此，年轻科学家不仅需要在职业生涯早期接受培训，以便在国际会议上展示数据并与该领域的同行和领导者进行讨论，还需要组织和主持会议，以及建立网络和确定潜在的合作伙伴。植物发育博士学院成立于四年前，旨在培养年轻科学家的这些技能，并为他们提供交流与合作的平台。植物发育生物学是一个令人兴奋且快速发展的领域，在过去几十年中取得了许多突破，但除此之外，博士生学院还没有针对国际研究生和年轻博士后的标志性会议。因此，植物发展博士学院在植物科学家界发挥着重要作用，此外还提高了德国对年轻研究人员的知名度和吸引力。作为新的组织团队，我们很高兴也很自豪能够带领这次激动人心的会议进入第四个年头，并邀请参加第四届国际植物发育博士学院，该学院将涵盖植物发育的许多方面，从干细胞控制到响应环境的发育计划的变化。该会议对任何感兴趣的人开放，但主要邀请博士生和博士后头两年的年轻研究人员。出席人数仅限 100 人。如果会议报名人数过多，主办方保留根据提交的摘要选择与会者的权利。国际博士学院由连续十个会议组成，每个会议均由国际知名的主讲人介绍。会议主题包括植物发育的所有领域，如干细胞和分生组织功能、营养发育、激素信号传导、开花、配子体和种系形成、种子和果实发育、细胞周期调控以及基因组印记、进化、系统生物学和数学建模等方面。预计每场会议将有三名博士生/青年科学家代表他们的研究数据，会议由其他博士生/青年科学家主持。他们将负责发起富有成效的讨论并指导建设性对话。两次海报会议将提供额外的时间和非正式的讨论机会。
