Drew Endy and Tom Richard are organizing a session on synthetic biology at the Institute of Biological Engineering annual conference, coming up March 10-12, 2006 in Tucson, Arizona. We would love to have some iGEM teams represented, and welcome presentations about other current research from your labs. In addition to the oral session focused on synthetic biology, there is an open poster session (with competitions for student posters in both graduate and undergraduate divisions) and a student essay competition on ethics.

Jay Keasling (an instructor for the Berkeley iGEM team) will be the keynote speaker at the conference. The complete call for papers and other information about the conference is at: http://www.ibeweb.org/
