FASEB Summer Research Conference on Yeast Chromosome Structure, Replication and Segregation, Snowmass Village, CO

霍伊特9812321美国实验生物学学会联合会将于1998年夏天主办一次关于酵母染色体结构、复制和分离的研究会议。这次会议将是两年一度的系列会议中的第五次，会议的重点是详细了解酵母染色体的组织、复制和分离。许多与会者认为，每一次会议都非常成功。事实上，很多与会者都觉得这是他们所在领域最重要的一次会议。上次会议的与会者一致支持在1998年再次召开会议。会议的一个主要目标是将该领域的一个相对较小的主要研究人员小组聚集在一起，讨论最近工作的结果，并为交流思想和信息提供尽可能好的环境。这是唯一专门讨论这一主题的会议。这一领域的许多科学家都参加了这次会议。此外，会议的组织者鼓励女性和少数民族研究人员以及较年轻、地位较低的科学家参加，包括博士后研究员和研究生。染色体携带着所有生物体细胞核中的遗传信息。酵母染色体结构、复制和子代细胞分离的研究结果与我们对所有真核生物中进行的染色体过程的理解有关。

Hoyt 9812321 The Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB) is sponsoring a research conference on Yeast Chromosome Structure, Replication and Segregation in the summer of 1998. This meeting will be the fifth in a biennial series focused on understanding in detail the organization of yeast chromosomes, their replication and segregation. Each of these meetings was considered to be highly successful by many of the participants. In fact, many participants feel that this is the most important meeting in their field. There was unanimous support among the attendees of the last conference to convene again in 1998. A main objective of the conference is to bring together a relatively small group of leading researchers in this field to discuss the results of recent work and to provide the best possible circumstances for the exchange of ideas and information. It is the only conference specifically devoted to this topic. This meeting is very well attended by many scientists in this field. In addition, the organizers of the meeting encourage the participation of female and minority researchers and younger, less well established scientists, including postdoctoral fellows and graduate students. Chromosomes carry the genetic information in the nuclei of all organisms. Results of studies of yeast chromosome structure, replication and segregation to daughter cells are relevant to our understanding of the chromosomal processes carried out in all eukaryotes.
