SUMMARY:XVIII Brazilian Congress of Plant Physiology and I Ibero-latinamerica of Plant Biology
DESCRIPTION:Theme: “Plant Systems Biology: integrating scales and time”\n\n\nA remarkable characteristic of plants\, defining part of their own existence\, is the modular structure of their bodies. A module can be considered as a biological entity (an individual\, a structure\, a process\, or a pathway) characterized by more internal than external integration. Overall\, modules can be considered as the nodes of networks that are connected via the edges \n(different modes of short and long-distance signalling). In hierarchical systems (such as any biological multicellular organism)\, networks of finer scales can become nodes in networks of higher scales and so on. The response of a whole plant to its environment is the sum of all modular responses to their local conditions plus all interaction effects that are due to modules integration. The integration among different modules is engendered by a sophisticated system of signalling spreading chemical\, electrical and hydraulic information throughout the plant body. In other words\, the responses of plants to their environments are emergent properties; i.e. an inevitable self-organized unfolding of new functions and structures of a system onto a higher scalar integrative level. \nThis internal dynamic is underpinned by complex metabolic networks subject to rules of interactions. In complex systems\, such interactions are typically nonlinear processes based on negative and positive feedback loops. \nNegative feedback plays a crucial role in maintaining homeostasis of the system\, whereas positive feedback operates by propagating and amplifying signals throughout the system. Both processes work together in the formation and stabilization of new patterns of organization\, which makes the prediction of their global behaviour difficult. Such a dynamical process of organization operates throughout the different scales of the organization of the plants system\, producing emergent properties non-reducible to its components at smaller scales of organization. \n​ \nThe understanding of such complexity has been improved by the exponential development of high-throughput technologies in the last decades\, uncovering the complexity of the organizational network patterns in the cell’s metabolism to the plant phenome\, thus creating the modern science of systems biology. Furthermore\, the huge data sets and growing computational power have stimulated scientists to uncover how plants respond to the environmental changes\, and how such knowledge could engender new technologies\, for instance\, to increase crop yields. Through these technologies\, researchers are describing deeply the different hierarchical levels of plant organization\, improving the possibility to predict the behaviour of the whole plant (phenome) based on extensive analysis of gene expression (genome and transcriptome) \nand/or metabolic networks (metabolome) to monitor and to manipulate cellular responses to genetic perturbation or environmental changes. However\, different constrains can make this predictability difficult\, challenging the bottom-up \ncause-effect approach that underpins the deterministic view of science based on an upward chain of causality. Thus\, a main question is how to integrate\, on one hand\, the massive datasets from molecular high-throughput technologies and\, on the other hand\, the growing high-throughput information on the crop scale\, i.e. plant phenomics\, which is a typical problem of finding a proper general scaling law. \nThe importance of studying integration of different levels of biological organization relies on an ontological base: 1- spatial and temporal patterns are dependent on the scale of analysis\, 2- there is more than one characteristic scale for the research\, 3- experimental results cannot be directly transferred to larger scales\, 4- biological interactions with the environment occur in multiple scales\, and 5- environmental problems are created by the propagation of effects on different scales in the biosystem. \n​Therefore\, the main objective of XVIII Brazilian Congress of Plant Physiology\, to be held in Porto Alegre – RS in September 2022\, is to expose the imbricate complexity of plants\, especially when embedded in a changing environment\, and to discuss the possibilities to integrate different scales of observation taking into account the temporal dynamic of the different levels of organization.

SUMMARY:Plant Synthetic Biology Conference
DESCRIPTION:The Plant Synthetic Biology Conference will take place in Barcelona\, Spain on September 19-21\, 2022. \nThis Conference is jointly organised by CRAG (Barcelona\, Spain) and the CEPLAS-Cluster of Excellence on Plant Sciences\, University of Düsseldorf (Germany). The meeting will bring together global leaders in the field and it will cover the most recent advances in plant synthetic biology\, with an emphasis on enabling technologies for reprogramming plant cells\, current agricultural and industrial applications\, the development of new green models and several perspectives on the ethical and societal aspects of synthetic biology. \nThe Plant Synthetic Biology Conference offers a great platform for interaction and the opportunity to discuss new ideas\, challenges and opportunities in the field. It also offers the chance for young synthetic biologists to present their work and interact with other mindlike individuals. \nScientific and Organizing Committee: \n\nJae-Seong Yang (CRAG Researcher)\nMatias Zurbriggen (CEPLAS\, HHU Professor)\nIvan Reyna-Llorens (CRAG Researcher)\nJulia Qüesta (CRAG Researcher)\nNicolás Bologna (CRAG Researcher)\nUriel Urquiza-Garcia (CEPLAS\, HHU Researcher)\nMiguel Miñambres Martin (CEPLAS\, HHU Researcher)\n\nConfirmed Keynote and invited speakers: \n\nDanny Ducat (Michigan State University\, East Lansing\, MI\, USA)\nGuido Grossmann (Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf\, Heidelberg\, Germany)\nZachary Lippman (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory\, NY\, USA)\nAmy Marshall-Colon (University of Illinois\, Urbana\, ILL\, USA)\nVera Meyer (Technical University of Berlin\, Germany)\nNaomi Nakayama (Imperial College\, London\, UK)\nSara O´Connor (Max Planck Institute for Chemical Ecology\, Jena\, Germany)\nVictor de Lorenzo (CNB\, Madrid\, Spain)\nDiego Orzaez (IBMCP\, Valencia\, Spain)\nNicola Patron (Earlham Institute\, Norwich\, UK)\nMarkus Pauly (Heinrich Heine Universität Düsseldorf\, Düsseldorf\, Germany)\nKaren Sarkisyan (Imperial College London\, London\, UK)\nMichael Schroda (TU Kaiserslautern\, Germany)\nRichard Smith (The John Innes Centre\, Norwich\, UK)

SUMMARY:Regulatory Dynamics During Development and Evolution
DESCRIPTION:Symposium overview\nThe creation of novel organs\, the formation of diverse shapes and patterns within tissues or the ability of cells to deploy different responses to environmental cues all rely on the assembly\, rewiring and co-option of gene regulatory networks. We now know that complex behaviours can emerge from relatively simple networks. Reciprocally\, sophisticated regulatory networks can often generate stable and predictable outputs despite being intrinsically noisy. Technological advances and new model systems are enabling us to address previously unexplorable questions\, continuously modifying our understanding of the regulatory logic that underpins life. With SLS2022 we aim to bring together theoretical and experimental researchers from diverse disciplines using a broad range of species and approaches to investigate the regulatory dynamics contributing to the emergence of biodiversity. \nSymposium format: Hybrid\nThe 4th biennial Sainsbury Laboratory Symposium (#SLS22) will take place at the Sainsbury Laboratory\, Cambridge\, UK over three days (21-23 September 2022) and will be delivered in a hybrid format. Delegates may choose to attend in-person or online. \nThe Symposium will foster a dialogue between researchers working on regulatory dynamics from different fields across the plant and animal kingdoms and consist of talks\, poster sessions and daytime and evening social and networking events. \nOur goal is to create a welcoming\, safe\, collaborative\, inclusive and respectful symposium environment by promoting diversity of attendance and inclusivity of participation of underrepresented scientists. \nWebsite: https://www.slcu.cam.ac.uk/sainsbury_laboratory_symposium \n
