The 2010 Annual Meeting of the Life Sciences Research Foundation will take place in San Francisco from October 29 - October 31, 2010
Fellows present their work in the form of a brief talk or poster to their peers, sponsors, guest speakers, LSRF board, peer review committee members and administrative staff. The meeting also features guest speakers and plenty of opportunity for informal discussion. If our meeting had a motto, it would be: "good food, great science"!
