COMBINE 2015: Reminders

[Chris J. Myers]

Hi All,

I wanted to remind you of some important upcoming dates for COMBINE 2015.

1) September 1st - abstract deadline.  We would like to have a wide variety of contributed talks.  If you have some work that you would like to share with the COMBINE community, please consider submitting an abstract.

2) September 14th - hotel reservation deadline.  We have a block of rooms allocated for a reduced rate of $109/night (including breakfast) at the University of Utah Guest House.  After that deadline, we cannot guarantee availability of these rooms.  Instructions for making your reservations are on the COMBINE website:

3) October 1st - registration deadline.  Even though this deadline is still a little ways off, please consider registering as soon as possible to help us have an accurate count of participants.

4) Finally, there are still funds available to support registration fees for students, postdoctoral researchers, and other junior researchers, as well as, participants from underrepresented groups working on systems and synthetic biology standards.  There are also still funds available for travel and lodging support for US-based students, postdocs, and participants from underrepresented groups.  Please apply for these here:
