Call for abstracts, Solanaceae workshop, Plant and animal Genome meeting, San Diego, Jan 18, 2011
This year, we'd like to introduce an innovation in the way we select the speakers for the workshop. Next to the traditionally invited speakers, we'd like to select some from abstracts submitted by the Solanaceae community. The work should be advanced, and either address a fundamental -omic question, or use -omics approaches to address a fundamental biological question in the field of Solanaceae. The abstract should be accompanied by a half page indicating the status of the work (preliminary findings, manuscript in preparation, manuscript submitted) and justifying why it should be selected for an oral communication. The abstract and accompanying half page should be sent by Friday, Sept 30 to:
Selected speakers will be notified by mid-October. Please note that the PAG organization does not refund any expenses or levy registration fees for the speakers. Therefore, before submitting your abstract please check that you have the financial coverage to come to San Diego.
Looking forward to a high profile Solanaceae genomics workshop!
