The following schedule indicates the blocks of time allocated for talks and the timing for meals and breaks. The actual scheduling of the talks into session topics will depend on the distribution of the areas of expertise of the accepted applicants to the meeting. This scheduling takes place Sunday evening and is fine tuned Monday morning prior to the first session. The first session begins late in the morning to allow those suffering from jet lag to at least partially recover. Departure is on Sunday the day after the end of the meeting is scheduled to allow recovery from the post meeting festivities.
At the 2006 meeting the session topics were:
- 1) Cell Biology
- 2) Neurons, Muscles and Eye
- 3) Genome and Infrastructure
- 4) Patterning
- 5) Signaling
- 6) Tissue Development, Organogenesis
- 7) Gene Expression
- 8) Germline
