Abstract

The IS-MPMI held its fourteenth meeting in Quebec City July 19-23, 2009. There were 956 attendees from 49 countries. Just over 50% of the participants were students or postdoctoral associates. Hani Antoun (Université Laval, Canada) served as Program Chair, capably assisted by the Local Organizing Committee and the IS-MPMI International Advisory Board. There were eight plenary sessions, 18 concurrent sessions, and over 700 posters.
