Das Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung fördert im Rahmen der Öffentlichkeitsarbeit des Deutschen Pflanzengenom-Forschungsprogramm GABI die Onlineplattform Pflanzenforschung.de. Diese soll als zentrales Modul neben anderen Elementen wie z.B. Fachforen der informativen Aufklärung über Themen der Pflanzenforschung dienen. Ziel dieses Internetportals ist es, die Bedeutung und die Faszination der Pflanzenforschung einer interessierten Öffentlichkeit zu vermitteln. Aktuelle Forschungsergebnisse, Hintergrundinformationen, gesellschaftlich relevante Informationen im Zusammenhang mit der „Pflanze“ sowie allgemeinpolitische Debatten im Kontext zu Pflanzenforschung und Pflanzenzüchtung werden populärwissenschaftlich, informativ und im fachlichen Kontext aufbereitet. Interdisziplinäre Verknüpfungen zwischen Themen aus Forschung, Landwirtschaft, Ökonomie, Ökologie und Gesellschaft finden neben spezifischen Projektinformationen und fokussierten Themen über die Pflanzenforschung hinaus eine gemeinsame Plattform. Das Internetportal zeigt, dass die Möglichkeiten eines Studiums in der Pflanzenforschung weit über den Studienhorizont klassischer Fächer wie Biologie, Agrar- oder Ernährungswissenschaften hinausgehen. Denn selbst Bereiche wie Informatik, Elektronik oder Sensorik finden sich in den verschiedensten Studiengängen wider. Berufsbilder, die heute in der Gesellschaft aufgrund ihrer Spezifizierung kaum wahrgenommen werden, werden demnach exemplarisch vorgestellt und sichtbar. ... [Information des Anbieters]
The ProkaGENOMICS conference series has been launched in 2003 by the GenoMik funding initiative of the BMBF and took place every two years, until 2011. In 2015 the North German Center of Microbial Genomics (www.nzmg.de) will revive this successful conference series devoted to all aspects of microbial genomics, one of the most rapidly evolving fields in molecular life sciences. The increasing power of high-throughput technologies now allows simultaneous examination of thousands of genes, transcripts, proteins, and metabolites. These so-called Omics technologies have become the new mantra in microbial genomics. They are powerful tools that allow monitoring of regulatory processes genome-wide under hundreds of different conditions, even single-cell analyses are becoming possible. The ProkaGENOMICS 2015 conference will address this challenging field of microbiology. ... [Information of the supplier]
The symposium will be held in the Institute of Systematic Botany and the Botanische Staatssammlung München, which are located in the Botanical Garden in München-Nymphenburg. Many historical and natural attractions are either within walking distance or easily reachable by public transport. Lake Starnberg and the foothills of the Alps are just 46 minutes by S-Bahn. The preliminary program includes eight sessions, to be opened by internationally renowned speakers, and three plenary talks on topics of broad interest. ... [Information of the supplier]
For the 2023 meeting, which will take place at the Hilton Dresden, Germany, Sunday September 24th – Tuesday September 26th 2023, we are trying to put together a programme focused on natural variation, domestication, epigenetics, polyploidy, and systems biology of green algae and land plants, of course all with a strong emphasis on evolution and evolutionary aspects. ...

We are pleased to announce that the XIXth International meeting on "Oxygen binding and sensing proteins" will take place at the University of Hamburg from Sunday, 11 September to Wednesday, 14 September 2016. The meeting will bring together researchers from the fields of biochemistry, biophysics, structural biology, physiology, genetics, and evolutionary biology working who work with any types of proteins that function in oxygen binding, sensing or processing. The meeting addresses researchers of all levels of their career, from students to professors. ... [Information of the supplier]
Over the last decade, the research field of metaproteomics has emerged to an indispensable tool in microbial ecology to identify the link between community composition and functional profile. The progress of this area is driven by technical developments in mass spectrometry and various DNA shotgun sequencing projects of environmental samples. The complexity of the samples and the non-trivial data analysis, however, represent serious challenges that hinder the whole field of metaproteomic research from moving forward and to tackle challenging research topics, e.g. in environmental or health sciences. In order to promote the scientific exchange in the community, this symposium covers the most important topics of metaproteomics. It is directed towards Postdoctoral researchers, PhD students, and other scientists with experience in related fields of microbiology who want to discover techniques of proteomic analysis. On the computational side, a half-day hands-on workshop is offered with guided tutorials for the MetaProteomeAnalyzer (MPA) data analysis software. The following topics will be covered during the Metaproteomics Symposium: Proteomics Workflow, Medical Applications, Environmental and Technical Applications, Bioinformatics and Modelling, Proteomics and Multi-Omics. ...
