Calendar Name: seminars Scheduled for: Thursday, June 7 2012, 11:00 - 12:30 Event text: Prof Gerrit Beemster Laboratory for Molecular Plant Physiology and Biotechnology University of Antwerp Antwerp BELGIUM Details: �Virtual Leaf 2.0: An improved tool to model plant growth regulation� ABSTRACT Virtual leaf is a software package that we developed for the simulation of hormone transport and growth regulation in multicellular plant organs. Over the last few years we have further refined this tool, so that we will be able to release a completely new version soon. Improvements encompass technical aspects such as a version tracking system for the software development, output to a standard format (hdf5) for import in external viewers and code optimization for faster performance. In terms of biology we have developed adaptations to enable the modelling of root tipgrowth. We also implemented more physiological realistic models for the regulation of cell expansion and cell division. Finally we have developed bifurcation analysis techniques to investigate the effect and importance of individual model parameters on the overall behaviour.

Calendar Name: seminars Scheduled for: Tuesday, May 29 2012, 11:00 - 12:30 Event text: Prof Jim Whelan ARC Centre of Excellence in Plant Energy Biology University of Western Australia Crawley AUSTRALIA Details: � Mitochondrial Biogenesis in Plants� ABSTRACT In addition to playing central roles in energy and carbon metabolism, mitochondria are biosynthetic factories for a variety of compounds, a target for various stresses and also play an integral role in stress responses. The control of these processes is achieved in an integrated manner with a variety of other cellular functions that occur in other organelles. Mitochondrial mass and composition varies in a cell specific manner to achieve these various functions in response to internal and external stimuli. Studies in our laboratory are aimed at understanding the molecular components required to regulate mitochondrial function and make mitochondria. Examples of the systems used to study these processes include; seed germination, where mitochondria undergo a rapid transition from metabolically inert organelles to highly metabolically active organelles in a short period of time; mitochondrial responses to stress and the components mediating these responses; and finally functional characterization of the machinery required to make mitochondria. Taken together, the results from these experiments reveal that, not only is mitochondrial function integrated with various cellular processes, but that mitochondrial function plays important signaling roles in defining these processes throughout the cell.

Calendar Name: seminars Scheduled for: Tuesday, May 15 2012, 13:00 - 14:30 Event text: Dr Mark Veugelers VIB Gent BELGIUM Details: �Technology Watch for access to breakthrough life science technologies� ABSTRACT VIB�s Technology Watch team continuously scans for novel technologies with disruptive potential in the life sciences and makes information on these technologies available throughout VIB. To reduce the risk of accessing high potential, but unproven technologies, the VIB Technology Watch team offers funding to VIB scientists for projects aimed at using these technologies. Limited Technology Watch funding is also available for access to recently commercialized technologies. Since 2009, more than 100 Technology Watch projects have been funded and in the meantime, several of these projects have led to high-impact publications. This presentation will present an overview of upcoming instrument-releases, services and commercial technologies with breakthrough potential in the life sciences and their applications in a wide range of fields: from DNA/RNA/Protein/Cellular analysis to imaging, synthetic biology, single-molecule analysis, high-throughput screening and beyond. Technology Watch funding for use of these high-potential technologies will be available to facilitate their adoption in VIB.
