Lake Cumberland Biological Transport Group Meeting

It is time to plan the 2002 Lake Cumberland Biological Transport Meeting (affiliated with APS). The central theme of the meeting is biological transport, but presentations in other areas are welcome. This is an excellent forum for principal investigators, postdoctoral fellows, and graduate students alike to present their data and receive feedback.

The scientific sessions will be held in the mornings and evenings on Sunday, June 16 to Tuesday, June 18. Afternoons are free to enjoy swimmig, fishing, golfing, riding, hiking, or any of the other activities available at the site of the meeting, Lake Cumberland State Resort Park, Jamestown, KY.
