Mini Symposia: Genomic approaches to coral reef biology

Convenors: Christian R Voolstra, David Miller, Monica Medina, Tim Ravasi, Sylvain Foret

An important goal for the mini-symposium is to provide crash course introductions to some of the latest achievements in coral genomics and systems biology approaches to coral reef biology. Another purpose is to promote research in this direction and to promote interaction between coral reef researchers from different areas. The speakers will present both the wide scope of the topic and important new results. The mini-symposium will be an excellent opportunity to shed light on this new systems biology and genomics era for coral reef biology.

The full list of ICRS 2012 Themes and Mini-Symposia are now available on the ICRS 2012 conference website (www.icrs2012.com).

Best Wishes,
Chris
