Development and evolution of vertebrate cranial placodes
Placodes are embryonic thickenings of the ectoderm and give rise to many of the cranial ganglia and specialized sense organs (e.g. nose, ear, lateral line) which arose as novelties during the evolution of the vertebrate head. However, in contrast to the neural crest, another versatile embryonic tissue involved in vertebrate head formation, we still know very little about placode development. Current research in my lab focusses on early processes of placode induction and development in amphibians (mainly Xenopus). In the future, we hope to combine these developmental studies with comparative studies of other vertebrates and protochordates in order to elucidate how placodes originated and diversified during vertebrate evolution.

Meetings

Integrating Evolution, Development and Genomics 2008
May 28 - May 30, 2008, Berkeley, CA

We are pleased to announce the Integrating Evolution, Development and Genomics (IEDG) 2008 conference. This student-organized meeting is the second iteration of the evo-devo meeting held at UC Berkeley in May 2006.

IEDG 2008 will take place on the Berkeley campus, Wednesday May 28th through Friday, May 30th, 2008. Its theme is the integration and intersection of evo-devo research, genomics, and a broad spectrum of complementary studies. The meeting schedule will include non-concurrent symposia featuring topics such as developmental biology, plant biology, paleontology, population genetics, genomics, and comparative morphology. In addition, the meeting will feature poster sessions, lunchtime workshops and an informal student-faculty dinner.

Speakers: Michael Akam, Jo Ann Banks, Richard Behringer, William Cresko, Bernie Degnan, Mary Droser, Chris Jiggins, Nicole King, Dave McClay, Armin Moczek, Louise Page, Paul Sereno, Chelsea Specht, John Taylor, Joe Thornton, David Weisblat, John Willis, closing lecture by P.Z. Myers

Participants are invited to submit abstracts for consideration for talks and poster presentations. Please visit our website (www.evodevo.org) for more information including registration and abstract submission deadlines. You can email us with questions at iedg2008@berkeley.edu.

Sponsors: Center for Integrative Genomics, Department of Molecular and Cell Biology, Department of Integrative Biology

Meetings & Conferences
EURO EVO DEVO
Ghent (Belgium), 29 July - 1 August 2008

Venue change

Dear All,

Following the highly successful inaugral meeting of the European Society for Evolutionary Developmental Biology (EED) in Prague last year, we are pleased to confirm that the next meeting will be held in Ghent (aka Gent, Gand), Belgium, 29 July - 1 August, 2008. As at Prague, a Tribolium satellite meeting associated with the conference.

Ghent is a beautiful old town (see below), that is close to many airports and big cities. It has its own internationally renowned museum of contemporary art (SMAK), and the city is only 20 minutes from the world cultural heritage site of Brugge (Bruges), where the famous Groeninge Museum houses a splendid collection of Flemish masters.

Several low cost carriers offer cheap flights to Brussels from many locations. It can be reached by train in half an hour from Brussels, 2 hours from Paris, 50 minutes from Antwerp, 3 hours from Amsterdam.

The local organizers of the meeting are Gaëtan Borgonie, Ann Huysseune and Eckhard Witten. The programme for the meeting is already being developed. We received an almost overwhelming number of proposals for special symposia, covering the breadth of EvoDevo, from developmental genetics to theoretical biology, evolutionary genomics to palaeontology, animals to plants. These proposals are now being considered and the successful topics will be announced on the EED website , along with other updates concerning the organization of the meeting.

Please remember to book this meeting into your diary.  

                                                                   We look forward to seeing you in Ghent!

The Developmental Biology of the Sea Urchin XVIII Functional Genomics, Development and Education

MBL, Woods Hole, 23-26 April, 2008

Mark your Calendars!! This is the primary meeting in the world for all those who use the sea urchin embryo as a model for studying developmental mechanisms. The special focus of this particular meeting will be the functional genomic approaches to the study of development. This meeting will be the first post-genomic meeting and sessions are built around an integration of bioinformatics, genomics-based approaches, and traditional methodologies in the experimental analysis of sea urchin development. A new component of the meeting is an education section to highlight the utility of this model in undergraduate teaching of Developmental Biology.

The meeting has the following timeline; we look forward to seeing you in Woods Hole.

Registration begins: January, 2008

Abstract submission Deadline: March 26, 2008

Final Program posted: April 9, 2008
