Final Announcement
STRUCTURAL BIOLOGY SYMPOSIUM
UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS MEDICAL BRANCH AT GALVESTON
Sealy Center for Structural Biology
and the Department of Human Biological Chemistry & Genetics
MARCH 1-3, 1996
Dear Colleagues:
Final details for the Structural Biology Symposium at UTMB are
enclosed. If you have not already registered, we would like to
invite you and your colleagues to join us in our inaugural celebration
of the UTMB Structural Biology Program and the Sealy Center for Structural
Biology by participating in our Structural Biology Symposium
scheduled for March 1-3, 1996. This meeting will bring together
scientists who are interested in applying insights from structural biology
and solution thermodynamics to solve biological and biomedical problems.
The speakers at the symposium are distinguished researchers from a wide
spectrum of scientific disciplines.
If you are planning to attend the Symposium, please inform us of your
coming as well as who may be accompanying you by no later than February
26th. Furthermore, if you intend to participate in the poster session, all
abstracts must be received no later than February 26th as well.
Although there is no registration fee, $50 will be assessed for
those who wish to optionally participate in the Friday reception, Saturday
lunch and dinner banquet, and Sunday brunch. Please make all payments made
out to UTMB-SCSB. In addition, checks will be the only form of payment
accepted.
Please complete and return the conference registration form
together with your payment, to:
Jacqueline Luxon; Administrative Secretary
