Meet me in St Louis!

Cassava project, Danforth Center

Danforth Center tour

Last week I presented our current research on BIK1 turnover in plant immune homeostasis at the 28th International Congress on Arabidopsis Research in St. Louis, Missouri. It was a smaller meeting than previous ICARs I've attended, but this meant more opportunity for meeting new people and networking. While in St Louis, I toured the Danforth Center - a world leader in plant research and biotechnology. I was impressed by the Bellwether Foundation Phenotyping Facility and the open-concept, state-of-the-art research labs. 

Overall, it was a great meeting with an excellent program. 

Looking forward to the 2018 ICAR meeting in Turku, Finland.
