1991 Northeast Regional Conference on Developmental Biology Woods Hole, MA; April 19-21, 1991.

1991年东北区域发育生物学会议将于4月19日至21日周末在马萨诸塞州伍兹霍尔海洋生物实验室举行。本提案要求资金支持研究生出席和参加会议。作为一个总体目标，组织会议的目的是汇集广泛的发育生物学家，在他们的职业生涯的不同阶段，在正式和非正式的环境中介绍和讨论他们的研究。此外，我们将继续整合植物和动物发育生物学的研究，努力加强传统上分离的群体之间的交流。会议将包括四次正式的平台会议、两次海报展示会议和一次主题演讲；这种形式在去年的会议上被证明是相当成功的。此外，会议还将举行视频显微镜会议和关于使用聚合酶链反应技术的非正式讲习班。届时还将有充足的时间进行非正式讨论。因此，今年会议的修订格式将为年轻的研究人员提供充足的机会向感兴趣的听众介绍他们的研究。

The 1991 Northeast Regional Conference on Developmental biology will be held at the Marine Biological Laboratory, Woods Hole, MA on the weekend of April 19-21. This proposal requests funds to support graduate student attendance and participation at the meeting. As a general goal, the Conference is organized with the intent of bringing together a broad range of developmental biologists, at various stages of their careers, to present and discuss their research in formal and informal settings. further, we will continue to integrate research in both plant and animal developmental biology in an effort to enhance the communication between groups that have traditionally been separated. The Conference will include four formal platform sessions, two poster presentation sessions, and a keynote address; a format that proved quite successful at last year's meeting. Additionally, the Conference will have a video microscopy session and an informal workshop on the use of Polymerase Chain Reaction technology. There will also be ample time for informal discussions. Consequently, the revised format at this year's meeting will afford ample opportunity for young investigators to present their research to an interested audience.
