[Concurrent 07] Arabidopsis and its translational research in the Global South

Arabidopsis research globally has provided invaluable tools to understand the plant world at different biological scales. A sizable proportion of that research is carried out by researchers in the Global South (i.e. countries located around the tropics and the Southern hemisphere), even though these countries face many political and budget limitations for scientific endeavours. This symposium aims to highlight the work of researchers from the Global South, oftentimes under-represented in international conferences, to bring a more diverse perspective to the meeting.
