The goals for this meeting are to review progress in N nutrition, genomics, systems biology, signaling and use efficiency in plants. The conference will feature invited keynote speakers from a wide range of backgrounds and research areas as well as speakers selected from submitted abstracts.

The meeting format will include seven oral sessions and two poster sessions. Each oral session will include invited speakers and speakers selected from submitted abstracts. For this reason, abstracts from accomplished junior and senior investigators are warmly invited.
