1988 West Coast Regional Developmental Biology Conference March 6-9, 1988, Asilomar, CA

这项提议是为了支付参加1988年西海岸地区发展生物学会议的与会者的食宿费用。会议将于3月6日至9日在加利福尼亚州的阿西洛马举行。会议将包括24位受邀的演讲者和一个正式的海报会议，所有与会者将被邀请展示他们的成果和想法。被邀请的演讲者包括教授、博士后研究员和研究生；会议将根据他们的海报演示选出另外三名研究生演讲者。会议的总主题是细胞类型和模式的规范；这将细分为五个会议：1.细胞内因素的细胞类型和模式的规范。2.通过电池与电池的接触或接近来指定电池类型和图案。3.通过扩散因子指定细胞类型和模式。4.细胞类型和模式指定的遗传方法。5.细胞类型特异性基因调控。这些会议为各级发育生物学家提供了与该区域内的同事见面的重要机会。

This proposal is to defray room and board costs for participants attending the West Coast Regional Developmental Biology Conference in 1988. The conference is to be held at Asilomar, California, on March 6- 9. The meeting will include 24 invited speakers and a formal poster session in which all attendees will be invited to present their results and ideas. The invited speakers include professors, postdoctoral fellows and graduate students; three additional graduate student speakers will be chosen at the meeting based on their poster presentations. The general topic of the meeting is specification of cell type and pattern; this will be subdivided into five sessions: 1. Specification of cell type and pattern by intracellular factors. 2. Specification of cell type and pattern by cell-cell contact or proximity. 3. Specification of cell type and pattern by diffusible factors. 4. Genetic approaches to cell type and pattern specification. 5.Cell type-specific gene regulation. These meetings have provided important opportunities for developmental biologists at all levels to meet with their colleagues within the region.
