SUMMARY:Western Photosynthesis Conference 2026
DESCRIPTION:The Western Photosynthesis Conference (WPC) is pleased to announce its 35th annual meeting\, bringing together researchers from diverse disciplines to advance our understanding of photosynthetic processes. As one of three regional photosynthesis conferences in the United States\, the WPC provides a unique platform for scientists to share knowledge\, collaborate\, and foster professional growth\, particularly for early-career scholars.\n\nWestern Photosynthesis Conference 2026 from January 8–11\, 2026\, at Green Mountain Retreat in Los Gatos\, CA\n\nThis year’s conference\, themed “Harnessing the Power of Photosynthesis: From Fundamentals to Applications\,” will explore cutting-edge research in areas such as mechanisms of light stress adaptation\, structural dynamics and functional implications\, advances in cellular and molecular mechanisms\, and innovations in photosynthetic technology and applications. Additionally\, topics will include integrative approaches at the ecosystem and global levels\, insights into evolution and diversity\, carbon metabolism and photorespiration\, and photosynthetic electron transport pathways.\n\nThe conference will be held at Green Mountain Retreat\, located in Los Gatos\, CA\, just a 25-minute drive from the San Jose Airport. By bringing together researchers from across the Western United States and beyond\, the WPC aims to foster meaningful scientific discussion and inspire innovative research within the diverse field of photosynthesis.\n\nInvited Speaker List:\n\nAlice Barkan (Keynote)\, University of Oregon\nSunnyjoy Dupuis\, University of California\, Berkeley\nNathan Ennist\, North Carolina State University\nGraham R. Fleming (Keynote)\, University of California\, Berkeley\nAnagha Krishnan\, National Renewable Energy Laboratory\nMaría Maldonado\, University of California\, Davis\nGraham Peers\, Colorado State University\nJesse Woodson\, University of Arizona\n\n\nImportant Due Dates:\n\nBy the end of September 2025: Registration announced by email\nNovember 7\, 2025: Early registration with a discount rate\nNovember 25\, 2025: Abstract submission to be considered for talk presentation\nDecember 19\, 2025: General registration and abstract submission for poster presentation
