Welcome<br />
Dear Delegate,<br />
Welcome to the 20th International Conference for Arabidopsis Research (ICAR).<br />
Following on from previous conferences in Montréal, Beijing and Madison, we are celebrating<br />
the 20th Anniversary of ICAR in the beautiful and historic city of <strong>Edinburgh</strong>.<br />
From its inception, ICAR has brought together scientists from across the globe to meet and<br />
discuss their work and establish new collaborations and ventures and I hope that this years’<br />
meeting will continue to fulfil these ideals.<br />
The conference has attracted over 850 delegates from more than 37 countries. There will be<br />
over 70 lectures and approximately 600 posters reflecting the wealth and breadth of Arabidopsis<br />
research that is undertaken across the world.<br />
I would like to thank all the Chairs of the scientific sessions and members of the organising<br />
committee for their help and enthusiasm in preparing the programme. I would also like to thank<br />
the BBSRC and other sponsors for their kind support.<br />
I hope you enjoy the 20th ICAR and your stay in <strong>Edinburgh</strong>.<br />
Ruth Bastow<br />
On behalf of the UK Scientific and Organising Committee<br />
