National Cancer Institute at Frederick, Frederick, Maryland, USA
September 29-30, 2005
By popular demand we are hosting a second (expanded) ABC gene workshop. The meeting will run two days and will be made up mostly of talks from students and postdocs with an emphasis on the genetics and function of eukaryotic ABC genes, particularly those involved in human genetic disease. Principal investigators are welcome to attend and discussants and session chairs will be chosen from the attendees.Due to generous funding from the NIH Office of Rare Diseases, the expenses of students and postdocs chosen to give talks will be covered. This will include hotel (2 to a room) and up to $500 for airfare or other transportation. If funds allow we will also pay for lodging of other students and postdocs presenting posters. Lunches and a Dinner will also be provided for all participants as well as a Social Activity on the first night. We are inviting representatives from the CF Foundation, PXE International, and the Children’s Interstitial Lung Disease Foundation. If you know of other foundations that should be invited, let us know.
