Ninth Southwestern Developmental Biology Conference March 21-23, 1991; College Station, TX

第九届西南发育生物学大会将于1991年3月21-23日在德克萨斯州大学站举行。这次会议由发育生物学学会主办，该学会在其指导方针中指出：“区域会议是学会的一项重要活动……区域会议的职能是为交流发展信息提供比全国会议更非正式的机会。特别鼓励研究生、博士后和初级教员参加……”会议将坚持这一目标。这将通过邀请三位著名的演讲者介绍“表观发生”的不同方面来实现。此外，将鼓励来自西南地区的发育生物学家介绍他们实验室的最新和初步发现。这样的安排将让西南地区的学生有机会发表演讲，会见专业学科的研究人员，并增加他们对自己所在地理区域所从事的研究项目范围的了解。

The Ninth Southwestern Developmental Biology Conference will be held March 21-23, 1991 in College Station, Texas. The meeting is sponsored by the Society for Developmental Biology, which states in its guidelines: "Regional meetings are an important activity of the Society...The function of the Regional Conference is to provide a more informal opportunity than national meetings for the exchange of information on development. participation by graduate students, postdoctorals and junior faculty is particularly encouraged..." The meeting will adhere to this goal. This will be achieved by inviting three prominent speakers to present different aspects of "Epigenesis". In addition, developmental biologists from the Southwestern region will be encouraged to present recent and preliminary findings from their laboratories. Such an arrangement will give the students in the Southwest an opportunity to give a talk, meet investigators from a specialized discipline, and to increase their knowledge about the range of research projects pursued in their own geographic region.
