On behalf of Pennie Liebig:


DEEP GENOMICS

April 3-5, 2014
Marriott University Park Hotel, Tucson, Arizona

The University of Arizona IGERT Program in Genomics is sponsoring an international meeting on deep genomics.   The symposium's theme this year encompasses broad scale comparative inferences in the three areas of our training program, including comparative and evolutionary genomics of divergent species, genomics of development, traits, and related interaction networks originating early in evolutionary history, and computational challenges associated with genomics at a broad phylogenetic scale. The meeting will take place at the Marriott University Park Hotel adjacent to the University of Arizona campus in Tucson on Thursday-Saturday, April 3-5, 2014. The format of the meeting will allow considerable time for informal discussion and interaction among participants. Participation by graduate students and postdoctoral fellows is strongly encouraged, and discounted rates for registration will be available.  For registration and more information, please visit www.genomics.arizona.edu/meeting.html<http://www.genomics.arizona.edu/meeting.html>.
