The meeting after that is a One Day Symposium on Embryonic stem cells to take place in Sheffield on 10th September. Details are still being worked out, but it promises to be a very attractive meeting on a highly topical subject of interest to many developmental anatomists. It already has a web page which will be updated as more information emerges. 5.4.01 News has recently come in of the Departmental seminars that have the benefit of Society funding. Newcastle has just announced the programme for its Minisymposium on Molecular mapping in the developing forebrain which takes place on 28th June.
Further details are on the Newcastle web site .
Manchester will also run a Minisymposium, to take place on 20th September, though the full programme has not been announced yet. There will of course be another competition run over the summer, for seminar funding for the next academic year. The call for applications will be circulated to all members during the summer, but in the meantime information can be found on the Grants page of this web site or from the Assistant Secretary . Anthony Graham and Gillian Morriss-Kay are to be congratulated on the way they put together such an excellent symposium on The evolution of developmental mechanisms . Associated with the Winter Meeting there is always the Annual General Meeting of the Society.
