Request for lab information in the form of a powerpoint slide:

As a way of re-introducing the labs studying zebrafish in the 
Boston/New England area, each lab is invited to submit one 
powerpoint title slide with the 1) lab name, 2) area of research 
interest, and 3) (most important) something that is fun to look at 
and relevant to your work. These slides will be compiled into a 
presentation and projected continuously prior to the talks and 
during the break. The intent here is to keep the local zebrafish 
community informed as to the diversity and range of research 
projects our work represents. Send powerpoint slides as email 
attachments to idrummon at receptor.mgh.harvard.edu.  

The Boston/New England Area Zebrafish Meeting is sponsored by:
