Welcome to Plasmodesmata 2010

21-26 March 2010 in Sydney, Australia

On behalf of the Local Organising Committee I am delighted to invite you to join us in Sydney next March for Plasmodesmata 2010, the 7th International Conference in this series.  You are promised an exciting week of the latest in intercellular communication, including intercellular signaling and regulation, virus movement, gene silencing and co-ordination of development.

The meeting will be held at a unique venue just inside Sydney Harbour near the beachside suburb of Manly.  The Quarantine Station, a heritage site recently renovated as a hotel/ conference venue, offers its own beach, fascinating historical artefacts, wildlife including bandicoots and penguins and magnificent views of the harbour.  There are a number of activities possible from this site such as bush walking, sea kayaking and it is a short trip to the surf beach at Manly. It will be a wonderful venue for our meeting.

We are planning a fun social program to show off the highlights of Sydney's relaxed lifestyle.  I look forward to welcoming you to my hometown for what promises to be a fabulous meeting next March.
