Conclusions

BIOVEGEN “Science-Business” Session

June 11, 12 and 13, 2014. Cartagena

The reference Congress in Plant Biology will have this year a Science-Business Session (Wednesday 11th of June), organized by BIOVEGEN and which will bring together researchers, companies and representatives of the Administration to enhance Science-Business collaboration.

The RBMP is the leading scientific conference in our country in the area of Plant Biology. This event, held every two years, brings together the best scientists of the country in the field of plant biology, which discuss the latest scientific-technological advances produced. Research in this field allows us to understand the functioning of the biological processes of interest in food production, and how crops respond to environmental difficulties, pests, nutritional deficiencies, etc. to be able to provide short-term responses to the future needs that modern agriculture will pose in the coming years.

Thus, the event will have 8 Scientific Sessions where the latest research results in Plant Biology will be presented: Biotechnology, Disease Biology, Development and differentiation, Species of industrial interest, Environmental regulation of development, Metabolism, Signal transduction, Abiotic stress.

In addition, the Meeting will have a Science-Business Session, organized by BIOVEGEN-Plant Biotechnology Technology Platform, which will bring together companies from the agri-food sector, researchers and representatives of the Administration.

Goals:

  • Present the latest advances in research in Plant Biology to the scientific and business sector
  • Provide a favorable environment for scientific interaction
  • Strengthen Science-Business collaboration, promoting the transfer of knowledge and technology to the business sector
