We
are pleased to host the 23rd annual meeting on genome science,
The Biology of Genomes, which will begin at 7:30 pm on Tuesday,
May 11, 2010 and run thru lunch on Saturday, May 15.
The
2010 meeting will address DNA sequence variation and its role
in molecular evolution, population genetics and complex diseases,
comparative genomics, large-scale studies of gene and protein
expression, and genomic approaches to ecological systems. Both
technologies and applications will be emphasized. In addition
there will be a special session on the ethical, legal and social
implications of genome research.

Abstracts
should contain only new and unpublished material and must be submitted electronically by the
abstract deadline. Selection of
material for oral and poster presentation will be made by
the organizers and individual session chairs. Status (talk/poster)
of abstracts will be posted on our web site as soon as decisions
have been made by the organizers.
We are eager to have as many young people as possible attend
since they are likely to benefit most from this meeting. We
have applied for funds from government and industry to partially
support graduate students and postdocs. Apply in writing to meetings@cshl.edu
stating need for financial support - preference is given to
those submitting abstracts.
We
look forward to seeing you at Cold Spring Harbor in May.
This conference is supported in part by funds provided by:
National
Human Genome Research Institute
We have funds to provide partial scholarships for individuals
who are US citizens/permanent residents from minority groups under-represented
in the life sciences. Please provide justification
in writing to meetings@cshl.edu
and state your financial needs. Preference will be given to
those applying who submit abstracts to the meeting.
CSHL and the meeting organizers want to ensure the fairest representation
from genome labs. Therefore please register AND ask your PI/labhead
