This course, to be held July 24-27, 2000 in Baltimore, MD, focuses on topics in extremophile research concentrating on the methanogenic, (hyper)thermophilic and halophilic Archaea. For information about the course and for a listing of symposium and workshop schedules please visit http://www.ib3.gmu.edu/educate/extreme/extremo.html Funding from the National Science Foundation has allowed us to cover tuition for eligible graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and faculty who are not funded in this research area. Please direct requests for information to Dr. Keith McKenney (mckenney@ib3.gmu.edu) or myself. Thank you. Sincerely, Harold J.
