We are expecting a large turnout for Denver, hence you can expect our presentations will be evenly spaced throughout the program. We would encourage students to take advantage of the poster sessions for presenting their data, and we would very much like to see faculty leading the way in the oral presentation sessions. As indicated in the recent issues of General and Comparative Endocrinology , our members have a number of exciting discoveries to present. This is the time to begin planning for the Atlanta meeting in 2000, and the Chicago meeting in 2001. Thus far we have not received any symposium proposals for Atlanta.
Interdisciplinary themes are always welcome.
Contact Mark Sheridan with your ideas for symposia topics or special oral presentation themes. In November 1997, the XIIIth International Congress of Comparative Endocrinology was held in Yokohama, Japan. The meeting featured several exciting symposia, and there were several well-attended satellite symposia. The next international meeting will be held in Sorrento, Italy in 2001. The International Committee has targeted North America for the 2005 meeting, and there is a strong preference for the meeting to be in the United States.
