Program:

The First Workshop on Basic and Clinical Aspects of Interleukin-10 will
take place in the University of Glasgow Queen Elizabeth Building at Glasgow
Royal Infirmary. It's now my pleasure to invite you to register for this
meeting and to submit your abstracts for presentation.

The purpose of this workshop will be to bring together scientists and
clinicians to present their data on IL-10 across a range of research and
clinical fields. In doing this, we hope to allow information to be
exchanged between different research and clinical areas.

The Workshop will be limited to 150 attendants and preference will be given
to those who intend to present data -- within this criterion, places will
be allocated on a "first come, first served basis".


ABSTRACTS
There is no restriction on the field of interest, any work which centres
round IL-10 in a laboratory or clinical setting will be very welcome.
Please limit your abstract to a size of 5 inches horizontal and 6 inches
vertical (126 x 152 mm), including names, addresses, title etc. Tables and
figures may be included but please remember that the abstracts will be
reduced to approximately one half their original size when choosing fonts,
type sizes and spacing. Unless absolutely impossible, please provide a
laser print in the centre of an A4 page. The presenter and corresponding
author (if different) should be identified and an email address provided if
available. Each delegate may present two abstracts. Approximately 70
abstracts will be selected for 15 minute oral presentation so please mark
the page "POSTER ONLY" if this is not desired. Abstracts will be selected
for oral presentation in order to construct a balanced programme. A small
number of 45 minute slots will be available, please indicate if you would
like to be considered for one of them.
