2015 Plant Metabolic Engineering Gordon Research Conference and Gordon Research Seminar; White Mountains - New Hampshire - July 18-24, 2015

戈登研究会议和戈登植物代谢工程研究研讨会为发展多学科合作提供了一个独特的环境，这些合作需要揭示植物代谢的化学和生化多样性，并推进植物代谢工程的基础和应用研究。2015年会议将于2015年7月18日至24日在新罕布什尔州的沃特维尔谷会议中心举行。会议将集中讨论三个关键领域：对植物代谢途径及其控制的新认识；植物代谢与基因表达调控新技术植物代谢工程从概念到领域和市场的发展，以工业界和学术界的案例研究为例。演讲者名单包括植物系统和合成生物学领域的领导者。戈登会议和研讨会以其研究生和博士后的参与而闻名，在过去，这一比例占与会者的44%。这些初级研究人员有很多机会与该领域的主要研究人员互动。戈登会议和研讨会注意到必须具有包容性。已确定10名女性参与者（6名作为发言人，4名作为讨论组长）。将邀请来自代表性不足群体的更多女性参与者和科学家根据她们提交的摘要进行更多的定期和简短的演讲。会议在以下组织广泛宣传：全国黑人化学家和化学工程师组织；促进奇卡诺人和印第安人科学研究会；美国化学学会；美国科学促进会少数民族科学家网络。会议地点有便利残疾人进出的设施，并提供儿童保育服务。

The Gordon Research Conference and Gordon Research Seminar on Plant Metabolic Engineering provides a unique setting for developing multidisciplinary collaborations needed to unravel the chemical and biochemical diversity of plant metabolism and advance basic and applied research in plant metabolic engineering. The 2015 conference will be held July 18-24, 2015 at the Waterville Valley conference center in New Hampshire. The conference will focus on three critical areas: new areas of understanding of plant metabolic pathway and their control; new technologies for modifying metabolism and gene expression in plants; development of plant metabolic engineering from concept to the field and marketplace, as exemplified by case studies from industry and academia. The list of speakers includes leaders in the field of Plant Systems and Synthetic Biology.The Gordon Conference and Seminar is known for its inclusion of graduate students and postdocs that in the past accounted for 44% of participants. These junior researchers have many opportunities to interact with the leading investigators in the field. The Gordon Conference and Seminar is mindful of the need to be inclusive. Ten female participants (6 as speakers, 4 as discussion leaders) have been confirmed. Additional female participants and scientists from underrepresented groups will be invited for additional regula and short talk presentations based on their submitted abstracts. The conference is widely advertised at organizations such as: the National Organization for Black Chemists and Chemical Engineers; SACNAS (Society for the Advancement of Chicanos and Native Americans in Science); American Chemical Society; AAAS Minority Scientists Network. The meeting location has facilities to provide access to persons with disabilities and provides for child-care.
