Dear Colleagues,
The BRITISH SOCIETY FOR PARASITOLOGY'S AUTUMN SYMPOSIUM 1998 - "EXPLORING
PARASITE GENOMES"
will be held at City University , London on 11/11/98
The Symposium will consider the current state of parasite genome projects
(for both protists and helminths), sequence data access and analysis,
recent developments in parasite genome research, and possibilities for
research in the post-genomic era.
The meeting will also be of interest to microbial biologists as it will
cover the impact of complete genome sequencing of pathogenic bacteria and
functional analysis of the yeast genome.
Full details, timetable etc are available from the BSP's WWW site under the
