I have an email (with some LARGE attachments) that starts as follows:
quote: The Society for In Vitro Biology (SIVB) will be holding its 2004 World Congress in San Francisco, CA from May 22 to 26. The SIVB meeting gives attendees the unique opportunity to meet and discuss Nobel prize winning research with the scientists who made the discoveries, such as Peter Raven, PhD, and Stanley Pruisner, PhD, who both spoke at the 2000 World Congress, and Kary Banks Mullis, PhD, who will be speaking at this year's Keynote Symposium on May 23. This World Congress will be exciting and will have state-of-the-art symposia on RNA Interference, Stem Cells: Fundamental Aspects and Therapeutic Approaches, Functional Proteomics and Biomarkers, and Microscopy.
I am asking you to assist me in getting the information about the 2004 meeting to all possible scientists who work in any field of in vitro biology (bioengineering, biology, zoology, anatomy, entomology, physiology, medical, botany, crop science, horticulture, biochemistry, etc.). Please also note that the SIVB Board of Directors has offered free meeting registration and one year of free membership to all students who are pursuing a degree program.
I want to delete the email, but figured I'd check to see if any of y'all might be interested before I did.
Email's in the profile -- please use the word "Hatrack" in your subject if you don't want me to think it's spam.

It is interesting stuff, and the speaker-list is full of luminaries. Thanks for posting that, Rivka. My remark was mainly based on having attending large (advertised) meetings like this vs. the more intimate, lowkey, poorly-advertised ones, and I much prefer (as a scientist wanting to learn and interact) the second.
