25th Fungal Genetics Conference
The Fungal Genetics Policy Committee invites you to attend the 25th Fungal Genetics Conference, sponsored by the Genetics Society of America. The meeting will be at the Asilomar Conference Center, Pacific Grove, California (near Monterey, California). The conference will open on Tuesday evening, March 17th with an Opening Mixer from 7:30 pm – 10:30 pm and end on Sunday, March 22 at 12:00 pm.
All meeting questions should be directed to Anne Marie Mahoney, GSA Meetings Manager, Mahoney@genetics-gsa.org, Genetics Society of America, 9650 Rockville Pike, Bethesda, Maryland 20814, telephone: 301-634-7300.
