This workshop addressesoverarching concepts and examples for using writing (communicating) about plant science in the classroom and sharing plant-based materials withothers. Participants will explore writing options useful for teaching in undergraduate settings (small and large enrollment). Key themes will include: Critical evaluation and revision of science articles in the public domain to improve not only accuracy and scope of plant science materials beingdisseminated, but also to enhance critical thinking in our students; as writing quality improves, so, too does the author’s ability to think. Incorporating technical writing for plant science education to broaden outreach and impact of plant science education. Science writing for non-specialist audiences should tell the story behind the science and illuminate (sans jargon) how the data link to big ideas andimportant issues.Sponsor: Education CommitteeOrganizer: Sarah Wyatt, Education Committee ChairLunch is available for sale in the exhibit area.10 - Complete Daily ScheduleDownload the Plant Biology 2016 App!Search Plant Biology 2016 in the App Store or Google Play Store.

We will go through examples of successful (andunsuccessful) communication approaches, and will walk through the necessary steps for constructing a successful elevator pitch. Participants willthen break out into groups in order to work directly with one of our expert mentors to develop their own pitch. To put practice into play, the ASPB hasarranged to have a videographer present at the meeting so that participants can be recorded trying out their elevator pitches.Lunch may be purchased in the exhibit hall or concession stands in the lobby.Organizers: Geoff Hunt & Teresa Evans11:30 AM1:00 PMPublishing in and Reviewing for the Plant Cell16ABWhat do Plant Cell editors look for in a submission?

PUIs are defined as institutions that offer few PhDs in the sciences. While teaching is a large part of being a PUI faculty member, maintaining asuccessful research program is also critical for career advancement and for providing undergraduates with high-caliber research experiences. Thisworkshop will include presentations and small group discussions of the best practices in research at a PUI. The focus of the workshop for 2016 willbe on obtaining funding from NSF and USDA. PUI faculty members who have been successful in obtaining funding will share their experience andprogram officers will address the concerns of preliminary data and previous publications.Please note that pre-registration is required for this workshop.Cost: 25.007:00 PM9:00 PMRelationship Building in Science Communication14This workshop provides guidance on building relationships with journalists and policymakers as well as the ethical issues surrounding publicengagement. Forming relationships with journalists and encouraging them to speak with experts is key for disseminating science-based informationto the public. Further, relationships between scientists and policymakers can help policymakers serve the public interest with science-basedregulation and laws. Participants in this workshop will learn good practices for interacting with journalists and policymakers. Building effectiverelationships requires trust, so this session will also include guidance on how to handle conflicts of interest and other ethical issues in sciencecommunication. Ample time will be provided for discussion and materials and recordings from this session will be published on Plantae.org.Please note that pre-registration is required for this workshop.Cost: 25.00Partner with us for your protein interaction project!Discover novel protein interactions with ULTImate Y2H- Benefit from the most exhaustive Yeast Two-Hybrid screening withour patended cell to cell mating process- Choose among 90 cDNA libraries in more than 25 species15 years of experienceover 300 publications1800 customers worldwideJoin us on Twitter & LinkedIn- Save time with detailed data analysis & the best scientific supportWe like to interact!Contact usFR: 33 (0)1 58 10 38 29US: (616) 959 7100services@hybrigenics.comVisit our websitehybrigenics-services.comPhoto Credit: The National Academic Bolshoi Opera and Ballet Theater of the Republic of Belarus, AFP, Viktor DrachevPROTEIN INTERACTION IS AN ARTLET THE EXPERTGUIDE YOUThe protein interactions expertDownload the Plant Biology 2016 App!Search Plant Biology 2016 in the App Store or Google Play Store.Complete Daily Schedule - 15
