NOTIZIE DAI SOCI

Pierdomenico Perata comunica la seguente opportunità di due postdoctoral positions in algal genomics:

ISSNAF has published on its website (www.issnaf.org), a request for application for the second ISSNAF Fellowship: a two year postdoctoral position in algal genomics, biochemistry or molecular biology to be conducted at the University of California in San Diego. The fellowship, sponsored by ENI, awards a stipend of 50,000 USD per year. The deadline for submission has been just extended from December 5th, 2008, to January 31st, 2009.

Eligibility:
The candidate should be of Italian nationality, have a Ph.D. in molecular biology, cell biology or chemical biology, and a keen interest in biofuels production from algae and plants that have been identified with potential to meet some of the future demands.

Laura De Gara dà notizia del prossimo convegno del "Plant Oxygen group" su "Reactive Oxygen and Nitrogen Species" (Helsinki dall'8 al 10 luglio 2008).

Dear Colleagues and Friends,
We would like to announce that the registration and abstract submission for the Plant ROS 2010 (July 8-10 2008) meeting will open on December 15, 2008.
The deadline for abstract submission will be on March 1, 2009. The early registration fee will be 400 Euro until the deadline. Registration will continue still after that date at the higher fee of 450 Euro. Please find more information on the conference webpage at http://www.pog2009.org.
We invite you to submit abstracts for either poster presentations or oral presentations. There will be two different types of oral presentations. At least eight longer talks (25 + 5 minutes) will be selected for presentations which will describe a 'full story' of great interest for the community, and more than 20 shorter presentations (15 + 5 minutes) will give an opportunity to present case studies/progress reports. The long talks will have similar visibility, duration and status as the invited presentations.
A limited number of double and single rooms are available at the conference venue. Thus, we encourage early registration if you plan to stay on site. More accommodation is available downtown Helsinki. However, this option requires 30 minutes of travel time to reach the congress venue.
In case of any questions please contact the conference organizers (organizers@pog2009.org) or the conference secretariat (secretariat@pog2009.org).
We are looking forward to seeing you in Helsinki in July 2009.
Jaakko Kangasjarvi
Chairman of the Board
