4th Rosaceae Genomics Conference
UPDATE AND NEWS
IMPORTANT: On February 16 the registration fees will
increase in $100 US dollars, so we really encourage you to register early.
If you haven’t registered or sent your Abstract we urge you to do
so ASAP! We are in the final stages of organizing the abstracts and the scientific
committee will be reviewing them this week.
We would like to thank everyone who has sent us their abstracts in word
or pdf format. If you haven’t sent it to us yet, please send it
ASAP.
We would also like to let you know that there are a limited number
of fellowships for graduate students. This fellowship will include shared
housing in an apartment complex as well as the hotel’s meal program.
Those who are interested in applying for this fellowship should
fill out the form that appears on the rgc4 website as well as present proof
that they are enrolled in a graduate program. PLEASE NOTE: THIS
FELLOWSHIP DOES NOT INCLUDE REGISTRATION. THE STUDENT MUST STILL CANCEL
THE STUDENT REGISTRATION FEE. The deadline to present Student Fellowship
Applications is February 22nd. APPLICATIONS
WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED AFTER THIS DATE!!
The abstracts that we have received are very interesting and
from many countries throughout the world, suggesting that this conference will
be a great opportunity to for us to discuss the international advances in
Rosaceae genomics as well as get to know each other more socially.
We look forward to seeing you “at the end of the
world”.
Saludos,
Organizing Committee
