The Auxin 2016 meeting will be held October 20-25, 2016 in Haitang Bay, Sanya, China. The plant hormone auxin is an essential regulator of almost every aspect of plant growth and development. The auxin field is an active and rapidly developing area in plant biology and is increasingly relying on high level integration of diverse approaches with computational models and bioinformatics. Coupled with recent advances in synthetic biology there has been a resurgence of interest in broadening our understanding of auxin biology. The objective of this conference is to bring together a broad array of experts to enhance the international dialogue on critical issues relating to auxin biology. This conference will contribute to the enhancement and improvement of scientific and/or educational activities by bringing together a leading group of International and US researchers. Participation in this meeting provides a significant training experience for young career scientists who represent the future of science in the US. In addition, this meeting will provide the foundation for international collaborations between researchers in the US and elsewhere. The Auxin 2016 meeting will include oral presentations by invited speakers and from those selected from submitted abstracts, poster sessions, and lightning talks by junior investigators. The requested funds will be used to off-set registration costs for up to 30 US early career scientists and to provide funds for one junior faculty member who is an invited presenter. The organizers will prioritize support for underrepresented groups and women with NSF funds.

Auxin 2016会议将于2016年10月20 - 25日在中国三亚海棠湾举行。植物激素生长素是植物生长和发育的几乎每个方面的重要调节剂。生长素领域是植物生物学中一个活跃和快速发展的领域，并且越来越依赖于不同方法与计算模型和生物信息学的高水平集成。再加上合成生物学的最新进展，人们对扩大我们对生长素生物学的理解又重新产生了兴趣。本次会议的目的是汇集广泛的专家，以加强有关生长素生物学的关键问题的国际对话。本次会议将通过汇集国际和美国研究人员的领导小组，为加强和改善科学和/或教育活动做出贡献。 参加这次会议为代表美国科学未来的年轻职业科学家提供了重要的培训经验。此外，这次会议将为美国和其他地方的研究人员之间的国际合作提供基础。Auxin 2016会议将包括特邀演讲者的口头演讲，以及从提交的摘要，海报会议和初级研究人员的闪电会谈中选出的演讲者。申请的资金将用于抵消多达30名美国早期职业科学家的注册费用，并为一名受邀演讲的初级教员提供资金。 组织者将优先支持代表性不足的团体和妇女与NSF的资金。
