MEETING ANNOUNCEMENT

36th Annual Symposium of the SOCIETY FOR DEVELOPMENTAL

BIOLOGY, INC. will be held on the campus of North Carolina

State University, Raleigh, N.C., on June 15-17, 1977.

The Symposium, entitled "The Clonal Basis of Development",

will feature leading scientists who are using allophenic,

mosaic, or chimera1 mammals, invertebrates, and plants

to study development with those who are studying the genetic

basis of cell clone formation. The Symposium will provide

a current assessment of knowledge in these two areas,

their interrelationship, and their importance to problems

of Developmental Biology. During the three day meeting

there will be five formal sessions with 15 invited speakers.

Another session will be used to sponsor a series of groups

or workshops. Continuing a policy initiated at last year's

Symposium, we shall have two poster sessions at which those

attending the Symposium can display recent results of

their own research. Additional information and registration

forms may be obtained by writing: Claudia Foret, Business

Manager, Society for Developmental Biology, Inc., P.O. Box 43,

Eliot, Maine, 03903.
