Free registration at the 2013 "Genomics and Health Disparities" in San Francisco

[Dmitri Petrov]

From Carlos Bustamante:

Dear colleagues,

We are writing to inform you that a limited number of free
registrations are now available for the 2013 Conference on "Genomics
and Health Disparities". Through recent generous donations, we have
secured funding for a limited number of academic and non-profit
scholarships. If you are interested, please register and email
HIHGG...@med.miami.edu a half-page statement on why you'd like to
participate in the conference. We will accept applications until May
14th and then contact recipients. If you are not selected, you will
have an opportunity to register as a paid participant. Priority will
be given for students and faculty from institutions and backgrounds
underrepresented in genomics research.

Please help us circulate widely.
