Research Abstract

We held the meetings for this project twice a year, and workshops by young scientists. We held and attended the international conferences. We stimulated the collaborations and achieved the numerous publications. The portion of our publications on phototropin signaling reached one third of the publications in the world. Our project led the studying of LOV photoreceptors in the world..
