Home Deadlines Schedule Registration Financial Aid Submit Abstract Poster Session Travel Info Hotels and Parking Sponsorship Organizers/Contacts Sponsors Useful Links	Proteomics and metabolomics are fast-growing areas in modern biological sciences. To keep up with the technological development and the frontier research, we are organizing a Proteomics Workshop and Symposium at University of Florida in August, 2009. One day and a half will be a hands-on workshop to teach students and postdocs the art and science of proteomics and mass spectrometry. Immediately following the workshop, we will hold a symposium with talks from world leaders and from students. Confirmed speakers include John Yates (keynote lecture), Sally Assmann, Julie Maupin-Furlow, Kathryn Lilley, Daniel Schachtman, Waltraud Schulze, Wolfram Weckwerth, Klaas van Wijk, Nancy Denslow, and Brigitte Simons. Wed., August 5 - Thu., 6, 2009: "Hands-on" workshop to teach students and postdocs the art and science of proteomics. There will be a $150 registration fee to cover the costs of food and supplies. The number of workshop participants will be limited. Registration for the workshop will require a written statement. Refer to the registration page for more information. First preference for the workshop will be given to students and then to postdocs. Please indicate if you would like to be considered for financial aid to cover the cost of the workshop fee. Refer to the financial aid page for more information. For schedule details, see: workshop schedule. Thu., August 6 - Fri., 7, 2009: Symposium with presentations from invited speakers and contributed talks. The invited speakers are world leaders in the field. The symposium is a venue for scientists to interact and present the research they have been doing that utilizes proteomics and metabolomics. A vendor show and poster session will also be included. Registration Fee: $70. Location: The symposium will take place at the Interdisciplinary Center for Biotechnological Research and the Genetics Institute (see travel information).	Confirmed Speakers
