Conference: Keystone Symposium on "Nuclear Events in Plant Gene Expression and Signaling"; March 2012; Taos, NM (Sagebrush Inn and Conference Center)

Keystone研讨会将于2012年3月6日至10日在新墨西哥州陶斯市的Sagebrush酒店和会议中心举行，主题为“植物基因表达和信号的核事件”。这次会议的目的是促进植物生物学中核动力学的综合观点的合成。Keystone研讨会会议在发起和促进合作以及学员和其他初级调查人员参与方面享有极高的声誉。会议的具体目标包括：1)打破研究领域的限制(通常是人为定义的)，以拓宽科学家的视野和资源；2)培养新的和未来的科学家。Keystone研讨会会议的组织者努力促进和确保发言者阵容和参加会议的多样性(包括妇女和代表不足的群体)。将有早期职业科学家、学生和博士后实习生参加会议。总体而言，会议将为受训人员和新的调查人员的科学和专业发展提供一个独特的机会。

Intellectual Merit The Keystone Symposia Meeting on "Nuclear Events in Plant Gene Expression and Signaling will be held March 6-10, 2012 at the Sagebrush Inn and Conference Center in Taos, New Mexico. This conference aims to stimulate the synthesis of an integrative view of nuclear dynamics in plant biology. Keystone Symposia meetings have an excellent reputation for initiating and fostering collaborations, and for participation by trainees and other junior investigators. The specific objectives of the conference include: 1) Break the confines of (often artificially defined) fields of study to broaden the vision and resources of scientists and 2) Educate new and future scientists. Broader Impacts The organizers of Keystone Symposia meetings strive to promote and ensure diversity (including women and underrepresented groups) in the speaker lineup and in meeting participation. There will be early career scientists, students and postdoctoral trainees attending the meeting. Overall, the conference will provide a unique opportunity for scientific and professional development of trainees and newer investigators.
