Max Planck Institute for Plant Breeding Research, Lecture Hall
Jiji Chai
Our colleague Jijie Chai will return to China after working for many years at The University of Cologne and the Max Planck Institute for Plant Breeding Research. This special symposium will recognize the contribution Jijie has made to the field of innate immunity in plants and animals. Invited speakers will cover various immunity themes and systems, highlighting recent advances in understanding the biochemical mechanisms of host-pathogen recognition, disease and defence.
