Welcome!

 

Following the highly successful 11 workshops inaugurated in 2013, we cordially invite you to the Netherlands for the first time. The 12^th Plant Peptides and Receptors Meeting will take place from the 11^th to the 13^th of September 2024 and will be held at the Fletcher Hotel De Wageningsche Berg (link) in Wageningen.

 

The conference targets interested Master’s and PhD students, postdoctoral researchers, principal investigators and non-academic participants. The workshop focuses on plant peptides, their membrane-bound and cytoplasmic receptors, their modifying enzymes and downstream signalling events in plant development and adaptation. The workshop will feature a number of invited speakers (link), talks chosen from abstract submissions and poster sessions. For more information, see the program (link).

 

The PPRM’s primary goals:

• Highlight recent advancements in the field of plant receptor kinases
• Present different views and models of receptor activation, other than only canonical ligand perception
• Share technological advancements on how to conduct comprehensive mechanistic studies of RKs signalling 
• Create a safe and inclusive environment for a scientific exchange
• Provide a platform for information exchange and potential future collaboration
• Take advantage of existing knowledge and expertise to develop interdisciplinary collaborative project ideas

 

We hope to see you in Wageningen!
