SUMMARY:CRISPR Construct Design for Efficient Genome Editing in Plants
DESCRIPTION:The application of CRISPR-based genome editing technology in plant science has opened up a new era of possibilities for improving crop traits\, studying gene functions\, and increasing agricultural production sustainably. To harness the full potential of CRISPR for plant genome editing\, researchers need a sound understanding of how to design suitable CRISPR gene constructs. This webinar\, titled “CRISPR Construct Design for Efficient Genome Editing in Plants\,” offers an in-depth knowledge of the critical steps involved in designing and delivering CRISPR reagents that ensure precise and effective genome editing outcomes. \nThe webinar will begin with an overview of how to choose the appropriate CRISPR nuclease enzyme\, such as Cas9 or Cpf1\, based on the specific plant gene editing and desired outcomes. Choosing the right nuclease is crucial for ensuring efficient and accurate genome editing. \nThe participants will learn how to select suitable target sites in the genome and design effective guide RNAs (gRNAs) for targeting specific regions. The use of various web-based software tools that simplify gRNA design\, ensuring high specificity and efficiency will be explained. The webinar will also cover the design of genome editing constructs\, focusing on selecting appropriate promoters to express the Cas gene and gRNA(s) in plants. Strategies for expressing multiple gRNAs and enhancing the stability of CRISPR reagents will also be discussed. \nTo register: https://www.glostem.in/register/?conf=CCD24 \nThe workshop-cum-webinar is ideal for plant biologists\, geneticists\, breeders and researchers who are engaged on applying the CRISPR technology to elucidate gene functions and enhance our understanding on various plant traits for crop improvement.

SUMMARY:IPMB2024
DESCRIPTION:The 13th International Congress on Plant Molecular Biology will be held in Cairns\, Australia from 24th – 28th June 2024 \nThe International Congress on Plant Molecular Biology (IPMB) was initiated in 1984 and is a triennial conference gathering plant molecular biologists from all over the world. The scientific program highlights recent discoveries in plant science from basic molecular biology to crop biotechnology. The range of presentations demonstrate the importance of plant molecular biology to understanding species diversity\, promotion of plant conservation\, and goals toward fulfilling the need for the development of ecologically sustainable farming in our changing world. \nAbout Cairns\, Australia \nCairns is a city located on the tropical northeast coast of Far North Queensland. It is nestled close to the Great Barrier Reef World Heritage Site\, which is the world’s most extensive coral reef system\, and the Wet Tropics of Queensland World Heritage Site\, an area of Australian wet tropical forests. To the northwest lies the Daintree National Park with its mountain rainforests\, stunning gorges\, and pristine beaches. The nearby Tjapukai Aboriginal Cultural Park pays tribute to the rich history of the indigenous Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. Within Cairns a bustling Esplanade is lined with bars and restaurants and has a swimming lagoon. The daytime temperature in Cairns in June ranges from 23°C to 28°C with an average maximum around 25°C (77°F). The night-time temperature ranges from 14°C to 22°C with an average minimum temperature around 18°C (64.4°F). Click here to read more. \nWebsite: https://www.ipmb2024.org/

SUMMARY:The 19th International Workshop on Plant Membrane Biology
DESCRIPTION:Since 1968\, the International Workshop on Plant Membrane Biology (IWPMB) has provided a stimulating platform to discuss research advances related to plant membranes and to exchange new ideas. After much discussion among the Organizing Committee\, we have decided that the theme of the 19th conference will be on how membrane transport is integrated with signaling\, physiology\, biotic and abiotic stresses\, and development\, and what new technologies and systems approaches can be adopted to address new questions and challenges. \nThe meeting was originally scheduled to be held in October 2022\, but the global pandemic prompted us to postpone it to March 2023. In doing so\, we are pleased to be able to conduct in-person meetings and\, coincidentally\, March is a very pleasant time of year to visit Taiwan. The pandemic has forced isolation on us for some time and\, undoubtedly\, we are all eager to have this opportunity to meet colleagues with common interests and to have stimulating and fruitful discussions to drive our research forward. \nIn order to encourage early career PIs\, postdoctoral researchers and students to attend IWPMB\, we have allocated funding for fellowships to subsidize some of their travel costs. Accordingly\, when you register\, please indicate if you would like to be considered for the fellowship competition. \nTaipei is a fascinating city\, with a mix of modern and traditional elements\, and it is enriched with natural beauty\, historical temples\, and diverse dining experiences both in graceful restaurant atmospheres and in the vibrant night markets. The local Organizing Committee and I will do our very best to make this workshop a success and your stay here comfortable and enjoyable.
