The main theme of the Workshop will be the Molecular and Population Biology of mosquitoes, yet we hope to have participants from working on other major arthropod disease vectors as well. The meeting's objective is to bring together, for the first time, an international group of scientists to present their findings on genome organisation and expression, population structure and gene flow and development of new tools (e.g. transgenesis) for the control of disease through the control of their vectors. The workshop will cover a broad area of topics while maintaining a small size in order to foster close interactions between the participants. We expect to accept about 100 people and, as a rule, not more than 1-2 participants can attend from any single lab. All participants will be required to present a fifteen-minute talk on their work, while some exceptions may be made for younger colleagues. The Organising Committee (see the workshop's URL), by vote, will determine who will be accepted to the workshop since it is possible that applicant numbers may exceed the available number of slots. Every attempt will be made to make sure that the attendance is representative of the mosquito research community worldwide. The entire application process will be done electronically. The deadline for receipt of applications is February 15, 2003. The application form and more details can be found at the URL http://www.anobase.org/embo_meeting/ We hope to see you next summer in Crete On behalf of the Organising Committee, Kitsos Louis ********************************************************************** --- .
