The symposium will be a one-day meeting simialr to last year. It is anticipated that this will be a gathering of biophysicists from much of the state of Colorado, including CU Boulder and CU Denver, and surrounding states. We will have several poster presentation slots, and strongly enoucarge students and scientists to present their work at this meeting to stimulate discussion with other participants. We anticipate 150 participants in 2012. For registration please click here http://alumni.du.edu/mcbsymposium . Contact Dr. Kingshuk Ghosh (kghosh@du.edu) for further details.
