Scope
The goal of this symposium is to bring together researchers working in a wide range of disciplines in plant biology, ecology and evolution in the field of plant interactions with other organisms. The central objective is to discuss and integrate information from different approaches and perspectives in order to create a synthetic framework for understanding these interactions. Our hope is to have a diverse and dynamic group of scientists, who are willing to step out of their disciplinary comfort zone and engage in an effort to participate in discussions spanning the range from molecular approaches to ecosystem implications.
