From sherlock from genome.stanford.edu Thu Jun 5 16:53:55 2008 From: sherlock from genome.stanford.edu (Gavin Sherlock) Date: Thu Jun 5 18:39:48 2008 Subject: [Arrays] MGED 11 Meeting, Trentino, Italy : Abstract Submission deadline for oral presentations is June 10th Message-ID: <0F9D2E1A-9456-4231-A913-0FDB0CDBE6C5@genome.stanford.edu> Dear Colleagues, Apologies if you receive this more than once. The MGED 11 abstract submission deadline for consideration for an oral presentation is next Tuesday, June 10th. Further information on MGED 11 is available at http://www.mgedmeeting.org/ and other key dates are: Notice of acceptance: June 25th Early registration ends: June 30th All abstract submission closes: August 5th The scientific focus of the meeting will be high throughput technologies - in particular microarrays and ultra high throughput sequencing - and associated data handling issues, analysis techniques and standards. We have lined up some outstanding speakers who will be giving talks on these topics. This year we will again be selecting half of the plenary speakers from submitted abstracts, to encourage greater participation in the MGED community. Continuing from last year, we will also be running a poster competition, with prizes for the best posters presented by graduate and postdoctoral students. Finally, we will be awarding up to seven $1500 travel grants to graduate or postdoctoral students who are US citizens traveling from the US. We look forward to seeing you all in Trentino, Sincerely, The Microarray and Gene Expression Data (MGED) Society ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MGED 11 Program Sunday 31st Aug. 15:00 - Registration and Exhibit Area are open Monday 1st Sept. 07:30- Registration opens 08:30- 09:00 Welcome, Introduction and organization details: Chris Stoeckert Catherine Ball, Cesare Furlanello ENCODE Session 09:00-10:00 Keynote Lecture: Ewan Birney 10:00-10:45 Plenary Lecture: Barbara Wold 10:45-11:15 Break 11:15-12:00 Plenary Lecture: Shirley Liu 12:00-12:30 Talks from Submitted abstracts (1) 12:30-14:00 Lunch Wine Genomics Session 14:00-14:45 Plenary Talk: Claudio Moser 14:45-15:30 Talks from Submitted abstracts (2) 15:30-16:00 Break 16:00-16:45 Plenary Talk: Duccio Cavalieri 16:45-17:45 Keynote Talk: Grant Cramer 18:00-20:00 Welcome cocktail 21.00 Public Science Conference I Tuesday 2nd Sept.
