CALL FOR ABSTRACTS

We are pleased to announce the first ever conference on 'omics
applications, tools and resources, focused on the environmental sciences.

The meeting is targeted both at current and future users of 'omics, and
for developers of bioinformatics and 'omics technologies. This includes
dedicated introductory talks and training sessions on day one, for those
who are new to the field, followed by two days of world-class science
presentations delivered by several international leaders in environmental
'omics. The conference will promote exchange of ideas between all of these
groups.

We encourage submission of abstracts to be considered for oral and poster
presentation, and in particular encourage submissions from PhD students
and postdoctoral researchers.
