Colleagues: I thought I would bring you an up-to-date report from the Cytomics meeting in Wales. The meeting started tonight and we heard a fascinating presentation on the background and history of the discovery of the double helix by James D. Watson. The talk was given by Prof. Errol C Friedberg, from the Univeristy of Texas Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas, USA. I found the presentation quite fascinating as it brought to me a sense of what probably really happened in those labs in Cambridge in the early 1950s. After dinner there were a couple of presentations by Beckman-Coulter on Tetramers and one on using CFSE for dye dilution assays. Wednesday, if I should wake up early enough, we will have several lectures on Genomics, followed by some Cytomics sessions in the afternoon. The Celtic Manor Resort is magnificient. I am on the 10th floor, and I took a couple of photos out of the window of my room when I arrived today and you can see then and the rest of my daily report at http://www.cyto.purdue.edu/celtic/ I feel like an embedded reported in the Cytomics society!! Till tomorrow J. Paul Robinson at the Celtic Manor, Wales.
