International Conference on. Arabidopsis Research (ICAR)

The International Conference on Arabidopsis Research is a major international meeting for plant biologists using Arabidopsis thaliana as a model organism to study plant development, genetics, and physiology. The conference covers a wide range of topics, including gene regulation, signal transduction, stress responses, metabolism, and plant–environment interactions. Researchers present findings from genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and phenotyping studies, often highlighting new tools and technologies. The meeting emphasizes collaboration and data sharing within the plant science community and serves as a training ground for early-career researchers. By advancing fundamental knowledge of plant biology, the conference contributes to broader applications in agriculture, food security, and environmental sustainability.
