CO2 Assimilation in Plants from Genome to Biome

Sessions cover the evolution of carbon fixation, Rubisco and photorespiration, CO2-concentrating mechanisms, photosynthesis in ecology and agriculture, water use for carbon gain, increasing carbon assimilation, carbon fixation at canopy to global scales, the links between carbon and light reactions, and carbon fixation and metabolism. The five-day meeting combines invited talks with extended discussion, poster sessions open to attendees at all career stages, and communal meals and free afternoons for informal exchange; attendance is by application.
