The intent of the symposium is to provide students and other scientists at MSU with a broad overview of the state-of-the-art of plant biotechnology and related fields. Special emphasis is placed on plant metabolic pathways that impact human health and nutrition, and sustainability in the production of food and fuels from plants and microbes. A second major goal is to expose young biologists to a broad variety of career options. To accomplish this, the event includes a career roundtable discussion, presentations and a poster session.
