The International Plant Proteomics Organization is committed to providing a welcoming and supportive environment for all its members and participants. We advance excellence in research and education by recognizing the importance of diversity, equity, and inclusion. Our commitment includes a bi-annual symposium that highlights our diverse and dynamic researchers, and virtual workshops and seminars to promote accessibility for the development of advanced technical, computational, and professional skills. For our annual symposium, we are pleased to demonstrate our commitment to promoting equity, diversity, and inclusion through several initiatives, including dedicated travel awards for trainees, invited early career researcher session co-chairs, and presentations from our rising stars in plant proteomics.
