2007 Lost Pines Conference

Welcome to the 21st Lost Pines Conference on Cellular and Molecular Biology. The conference will be held on the weekend of November 2-4, 2007 at the Science Park campus of the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Smithville, Texas, where it has been held since 1983. The format of this meeting is designed to be both a forum for high quality scientific presentations, and also a venue encouraging interaction among scientists at all levels in the biomedical research community in Texas and the surrounding region. To achieve this goal, only one Keynote Speaker is invited, and we rely on the meeting participants to provide platform and poster presentations of consistently high scientific quality and interest. The Lost Pines Conference is an ideal meeting for graduate and postdoctoral students, faculty new to the state, as well as established scientists, to attend in order both to communicate their latest results, and to become acquainted or reacquainted with their colleagues in Texas and the region.

This year, we welcome Dr. Paul Modrich as our distinguished keynote speaker. Dr. Modrich is the James B. Duke Professor of Biochemistry at Duke University and a member of the National Academy of Sciences. He studies DNA repair systems that maintain the integrity of the cell's genetic information.
