May 11 - 12, 2010 3rd Conference on Sustainable Agriculture: The Art of Farming - Innovative Solutions for a Sustainable Mainstream Agriculture
We need sustainable agricultural to feed the future world. That calls for reduction of carbon footprint, the start of farming 'cool' and the protection of soil from erosion, reduction of the amount of water we need to grow crops and fostering our farmers and farming communities globally. We need innovative and cost efficient solutions. And we need them fast. The 3rd Conference on Sustainable Agriculture accelerates solution finding through sharing state-of-the-art insights in innovative sustainable products, cutting edge techniques and cost efficient measurements. Forerunners in the business will share their knowledge, insights and experiences with you in this two day conference loaded with high level working sessions, keynote speeches, workshops, networking opportunities, updates on the most important round tables and many more.

April 6 - 8, 2010 EUCARPIA Cereal Section Meeting
MOLECULAR AND FUNCTIONAL DIVERSITY OF DIPLOID AND POLYPLOID CEREAL GENOMES: ‘HOW CAN WE EFFECTIVELY DETECT AND EXPLOIT THIS VARIATION IN BREEDING PROGRAMMES?’ The previous successful conference of the Cereal Section in Leida, Spain proved that the Cereal Section is one of the most popular sections of EUCARPIA for plant scientists and breeders interested in the genetics and improvement of cereals. Deadline of application for oral and poster presentations is 1 December 2009. Registration and accommodation details will be available on the 1st circular website of the meeting (www.niab.com) and EUCARPIA homepages (http://www.eucarpia.org/). EUCARPIA offers a one year free membership for non Eucarpia member participants. Dr Tina Barsby - Chairman of the Organizing Committee Prof Wayne Powell - Head of the Cereal Section

December 14 - 17, 2009 Mathematics in the Plant Sciences Study Group (MPSSG)
The Third Mathematics in the Plant Sciences Study Group (MPSSG), hosted by GARNet and the Centre for Plant Integrative Biology, will take place at the University of Nottingham from 14 -17th December 2009. The Study Group aims to promote interactions between mathematicians and experimentalists working within Plant Science. The assembled theoreticians will tackle problems presented by Plant Scientists on the first day of the meeting. The insights generated by using mathematical modelling approaches can often lead to interesting and previously unthought-of ideas for tackling problems. For examples of problems previously tackled please see http://cpib.info/plantstudygroup/pastmeet.shtml Some feedback from Plant Scientists at previous MPSSGs: “Interacting with non-biologists completely changes your focus… it forces you to think outside the ‘trendy experiment’ box and think about what you actually need to find out.” “By combining simple datasets and models we could generate and test simple hypotheses without setting foot in a lab.” We are currently looking for interesting scientific problems to be presented at the meeting from any area of the Plant Sciences. Please note that previous mathematical modelling or input is not a stipulation for bringing a problem to the meeting. If you have a problem that you would like us to tackle during the meeting then please contact Ruth Bastow (ruth@arabidopsis.info) or Marcus Tindall (m.tindall@reading.ac.uk).

October 4 - 5, 2009 EU COST TD0801 -StatSeq workshop
“Statistical challenges on 1000euro genome sequences in plants” New sequencing technologies will soon enable us to sequence plant genomes for less than 1000 euros. This will accelerate plant genomics and biological research. The workshop will provide an excellent opportunity to share and discuss statistical challenges, best-practices and future directions when dealing with large scale genome sequence data in plants. The workshop will be a mixture of invited talks and contributed talks and posters. -[1]--------------------------------- We now welcome your abstracts! The deadline is August 15 2009. Soon after this date we will draft the program and inform the presenters. You can upload your abstract on the statseq website, or by using the following link: http://www.statseq.eu/index.php?option=com_jforms&view=form&id=4&Itemid=35 ------------------------------------- -[2]--------------------------------- Registration open The registration fee is 140 euro and covers access, documentation and meals/refreshments of the workshop.
