Please plan to join us for the Annual Meeting this year at Rice University in Houston, Texas. Download the iPoLS Annual Meeting 2018 Program and Schedule.
We will begin the meeting on Friday afternoon, June 22nd, and conclude midday on Tuesday, June 26th. In addition to our usual talks and poster sessions, there will be some free time on Sunday to explore the Houston area, watch a baseball game, or check out museums and restaurants.
The iPoLS meeting will be directly followed by the q-bio Conference to be held June 26-29, 2018, if that is of interest. We will be having an event with the q-Bio group at the Museum of Natural Science on Tuesday evening.
Housing will be available in the Rice dormitories, with single and double rooms available. Breakfast will be provided for those staying in the dorms. For those not wishing to stay in the dorms, there are a number of hotels nearby in the Houston Medical Center.
For your convenience, please find the 2018 iPoLS Annual Meeting and Poster Abstracts.
For questions, please email Margie Dieter (mmdieter@rice.edu).
