Kick-off Meeting
Let's get started!
On 7 October we will present the overarching research programme of our CRC 1644 on phenotypic plasticity in plants.
Our 30 new PhD students and postdocs will give short presentations on their individual projects. During poster sessions, everyone can discuss and exchange ideas over a cup of coffee.
Roosa Laitinen from University of Helsinki and Ive De Smet from VIB-UGent Center for Plant Systems Biology will inspire us with talks on their work on phenotypic plasticity.
Join us for the kick-off of this very exciting journey!
About our CRC:
This interdisciplinary programme comprises 18 projects led by 20 Principal Investigators from the University of Potsdam, the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Plant Physiology (MPIMP), the Hasso Plattner Institute (HPI), the Leibniz Institute of Vegetable and Ornamental Crops (IGZ), the Humboldt University (HU) and the University of Cologne.
By integrating genetics, cell and developmental biology, physiology, evolutionary biology, ecology, computational biology and mathematical modelling, we will achieve a step change in our understanding of phenotypic plasticity as an evolving trait of critical importance for the fate of plant populations in the face of environmental change. Our consortium is structured into a Project A area, which studies plasticity to conditions, and a Project B area, which studies plasticity to resources. The central Project Z2 ensures synergy through data integration across the CRC.
