Currently, the Division is working to update its mission statement and to review its by-laws.
Suggestions are welcome.
There is an interest to increase the student involvement in the division, which already sponsors important student awards and provides valuable networking opportunities. If there is none in this category, the award will be given to the best student poster. It certainly is a fantastic opportunity for students. There was also a Poster Session concurrent with several tabletop exhibits, proceeds of which go to the AACC Student Travel Fund. The Banquet featured a guest speaker, the AACC representative Anne Bridges, from Medallion Labs, who talked about the issues concerning genetic modification of foods.
