Western Conference in Immunology
for Graduate Students, Medical Students, and Postdoctoral Fellows
University of California, Berkeley
June 30-July 2, 1995
The Western Conference in Immunology is an annual conference designed
specifically for students and post-docs to present their work in a
relaxed and informal setting. We are able to keep the costs to
participants to an absolute minimum due to the generous donation of
funds from many biotechnological companies in the area. WCI '95 will
be held in the Berkeley Conference Center (one block from the U.C.
Berkeley campus), and participants will be housed for two nights in the
luxurious Hotel Durant or Shattuck Hotel.
CONFERENCE NOTES: The conference will be held at the Berkeley
Conference Center located one block west of campus at 2105 Bancroft
Way. The conference begins Friday evening with the keynote address by
Dr. Paul M. Allen from Washington University at St. Louis. The address
will be followed immediately by an informal reception. Participant
talks will be scheduled on Saturday and Sunday Mornings. Posters will
be on display Saturday afternoon. The conference ends with lunch on
Sunday.
The normal registration and housing fee per person (including guests)
is $60.00; for participants that present their work, the fee is only
$35.00. The fee is based on double occupancy for Friday and Saturday
nights at either the Hotel Durant or the Shattuck Hotel. For those who
don't require housing the fee is $20.00. The registration fee includes
continental breakfast and catered lunch at the Saturday and Sunday
morning sessions.
