Welcome to SMPR Valencia 2019 |
Dear Colleagues and Friends,
On behalf of the SMPR 2019 Scientific and Local Organising Committees, I would like to invite you warmly to the Symposium on Small Molecules in Plant Research: Chemistry and Biology Come Together, which will take place in Valencia, Spain, from 10 to 11 December 2019, under the patronage of the IBMCP (Instituto de Biología Molecular y Celular de Plantas).
The importance of small molecules is gaining momentum. Small molecules are present in numerous research fields, from the study of plant development to plant responses to biotic and abiotic stresses. They also give plants added value features as attractive colours, tasty flavours or healthy properties.
Located in the Spanish eastern coast, Valencia’s geographical position makes it an excellent operational base to explore the rest of Spain. At just an hour and a half from Madrid by train, three hours from Barcelona by car, and with daily departures to the Balearic Islands, the capital of the Mediterranean is well worth a visit.
