Dear Colleague:
You are invited to attend the Plant & Animal Genome XIV Conference
(PAG-XIV), January 14-18, 2006 taking place at the Town & Country
Hotel in San Diego. This is a call for abstracts and pre-registration.
Everyone who submits an abstract is required to pay the registration
fee prior to the meeting to be included in the Final Abstract Guide
and posted on the website. You must be registered by December 2, or
your abstract will NOT be printed or posted on the website.
The meeting will again offer the satellite sessions and workshops
which took place at Plant & Animal Genome XIII. The meeting draft
for PAG-XIV and abstracts from PG-I through PAG-XIII are available
on the PAG website at: http://www.intl-pag.org. The scheduling
adjustment implemented in 2005 will be followed for PAG-XIV,
with no evening workshops past 7:30 PM, allowing for more social
time at night.
We are requesting that all abstracts be submitted electronically.
Point your browser to the address below and click on the Abstracts
Submission link when it is available in early September at:
http://www.intl-pag.org
Due to severe delays in getting VISAs to enter the US, we
recommend that you plan ahead and do NOT wait for your abstract
acceptance to begin the process. You should allow up to 6 months
to the complete process. DO NOT WAIT. See the information link at
the web site as updates are provided.
All researchers presenting posters must pre-register for the
meeting to have their abstract printed in the final meeting
program. The abstract deadline is Friday, October 7, 2005.
