Dear colleagues,

 

We are pleased to announce the second Honey Bee Genomics & Biology Workshop,
which will be held at Cold Spring Harbor from May 8 to May 10, 2011.  It
will immediately precede the Biology of Genomes meeting.

 

We have an outstanding international group of invited speakers, and a
diverse array of symposia which will cover the wealth of exciting recent
developments in honey bee and social insect biology - see below for a full
listing.

 

The submission deadline for abstracts for poster and oral presentations is
February 18, 2011.  

 

For more information, including information on the pre-meeting workshop on
the Development of Functional Genomic Tools in Honey Bees, please go to the
website:  http://meetings.cshl.edu/meetings/honeyb11.shtml

 

Please pass this information along to interested colleagues, and we hope to
see you in May!

 

Best,

 

Christina Grozinger, Uli Mueller, and Robert Page
