2016 Plant and Microbial Cytoskeleton: The Mechanics of Building Cells in Plants and Microbes

该项目将支持年轻教师、代表不足的少数族裔科学家、Pui教师以及研究生和博士后参加2016年植物和微生物细胞骨架戈登研究会议，会议将于2016年8月14-19日在NH安多弗的Proctor Academy举行。会议将包括简短的演讲、海报会议、社区餐饮和对话，这些将为分享最新研究成果和探索合作可能性提供充足的机会。植物、真菌和植物的细胞骨架在这些生物体的细胞分裂、细胞运输和壁组织中起着重要的作用。这项工作的更广泛影响涉及细胞骨架对一系列生物体的重要性，以及培训新科学家从事这些领域的研究。尖端或最新的研究将在从摘要中选择的几个简短的演讲中得到强调。这次会议的主要目的是促进具有共同专业兴趣的科学家之间的讨论，包括来自非研究密集型学院和大学的科学家之间的讨论，促进各自领域先进方面的思想交流，并使科学合作能够朝着新的方向发展。

This project will support attendance of young faculty, under-represented minority scientists, PUI faculty, along with graduate students and post-docs at the 2016 Plant and Microbial Cytoskeleton Gordon Research Conference to be held at the Proctor Academy in Andover, NH, August 14-19, 2016. The meeting will consist of short talks, poster sessions, communal dining, and conversations that will provide ample opportunity for sharing latest research results and for exploring collaborative possibilities. The cytoskeleton of plant, fungi, and plants play important roles in cell division, cellular trafficking, and wall organization in these groups of organism. The Broader Impacts of this work involves both the importance of the cytoskeleton to a range of organisms, as well as the training of new scientist to pursue research in these fields. Cutting-edge or late-breaking research will be highlighted in several short talks chosen from the abstracts. The primary purposes of this conference are to promote discussion between scientists with common professional interests, including those from non-research-intensive colleges and universities, to foster the exchange of ideas from advanced aspects of their field, and to enable scientific collaborations to evolve in new directions.
