We are pleased to host the 74th Cold Spring Harbor Symposium which will address Evolution: The Molecular Landscape. The Symposium will begin at 7:30 pm on Wednesday, May 27, 2009 and end with a banquet on Monday June 1 with normal departure on the following morning.
The Symposium will include 12 oral sessions and 2 poster sessions covering the latest findings evolutionary biology. Most of the talks will be given by invited speakers but we intend to award several Symposium fellowships to younger scientists presenting work through openly submitted abstracts who will earn the opportunity to present their latest work in the form of short talks. Social events throughout the Symposium provide ample opportunity for informal interactions and will include a wine-and-cheese party, a beach picnic, cocktails and banquet, and departure brunch.

We are accepting abstracts for consideration as poster or Symposium Fellows presentations (see below). Abstracts should contain only new and unpublished material and must be submitted electronically by the abstract deadline. Status of abstracts will be posted on our web site as soon as decisions have been made by the organizers
The Symposium Fellows program will award eight fellowships selected from the submitted abstracts on the basis of scientific merit to outstanding young investigators (grad students, postdocs and less-than-five year principle investigators only) who will be provided with registration, room and board costs of attending the meeting and will be invited to present their research as short talks at the Symposium..
We look forward to seeing you at Cold Spring Harbor in May/June.
The Symposium is supported in part by funds provided by CSHL's Corporate Sponsor Program, the National Institutes of Health and the National Science Foundation.
We have funds to provide partial scholarships for individuals who are US citizens/permanent residents from minority groups under-represented in the life sciences. Please provide justification in writing to meetings@cshl.edu and state your financial needs. Preference will be given to those applying who submit abstracts.
