CSPP/SCPV Meetings | CongrèsNational Meetings
The Banff Conference on Plant Metabolism: http://www.ucalgary.ca/plantmetabolism2010/ Regional Meetings2012 Eastern Regional MeetingCSPP Eastern Regional meetings are traditionally held each year in early December. This year, the Eastern Regional meeting will be combined with the Plant Development Workshop and will be hosted at Wilfrid Laurier University in Waterloo. In the past, CSPP conferences held in Waterloo have been well-attended due to its central location. Wilfrid Laurier University has hosted successful meetings in its comfortable and convenient facilities, has always taken tremendous care of conference participants, and provided excellent food. This year also marks the 50th anniversary of the Department of Biology at Wilfrid Laurier University. CSPP Eastern Regional members can anticipate an exceptional meeting featuring high-quality science. Please, mark your calendars for the 2012 Eastern Regional Meeting to be held in early December 2012 at Wilfrid Laurier University in Waterloo. The exact dates will be announced in due course. We encourage talks and posters from all areas of plant biology and of interest to CSPP members. As usual, we especially encourage students and post-doctoral fellows to contribute their presentations and remind them that CSPP offers the George H. Duff Student & Post-Doc Travel Bursary to help with the cost of conference attendance. 2013 Western Regional ConferenceThe next Western regional conference will take place in 2013. We are planning to have the meeting at the end of August (25-27), at the beautifully located Loon Lake Research & Education Centre (http://www.loonlake.ubc.ca/index.htm), located in the UBC Malcolm Knapp Research Forest, some 40 minutes away from downtown Vancouver. The centre offers not only conference and food services but also various social exercises such as canoeing, rock climbing and rappelling, and not to forget, guided tours in the research forest and relaxing walks in ancient Western red cedar forests. In addition to research presentations, we also plan to offer a mini workshop on the application of next generation DNA sequence technology for purposes ranging from rapid cloning of mutants in Arabidopsis and other species with a sequenced genome, to genome-wide analysis of differential gene expression in any plant species, regardless of available genomic resources. A more detailed announcement will be made at the 2012 meeting in Edmonton. Plant Physiology Meetings | Congrès en physiologie végétale
