On 18 – 19 November 2024, the Royal Society will host a residential Theo Murphy scientific meeting in Manchester, on the topic of carbon dioxide in biological systems.
The meeting will be led by Professor Martin Cann from Durham University, Professor Elizabete Carmo-Silva from Lancaster University and Dr Eoin Cummins from University College Dublin.
Carbon dioxide is essential for life. It is central to physiological processes, including photosynthesis, metabolism, homeostasis and chemosensing. However, the mechanisms underpinning carbon dioxide sensing, signalling and adaptation are poorly understood.
This meeting will unite researchers who study carbon dioxide biology in photosynthetic and animal systems. Speakers and participants will discuss the common goal of understanding the molecular basis of carbon dioxide detection.
There will be a poster session on Monday 18 November 2024. Attendees can apply to present a poster.
This meeting is intended for researchers in relevant fields. Advance registration is essential.
More information about the speakers, programme and how to register for this meeting can be found on the Royal Society website.
