August 23-26, 2003
- This event will celebrate the
hallmark contributions to advanced education that have been made
at the Friday Harbor Laboratories bynational and international
educators in marine sciences.
For this symposium, 25 noted
speakers have accepted our invitations to address the impacts
of the FHL educational program on the fields that have been particularly
prominent in it over the years: Comparative Embryology, Molecular
Molecular Biology, Neurobiology, Evolutionary Developmental Biology,
Fish Biology, Invertebrate Biology, Larval Biology, Marine Plant
Biology, and Biological Oceanography. In addition, former students
in FHL courses who have become particularly distinguished contributors
to their fields will join us as well to present their assessments
and ideas for the future.
These distinguished teacher-scholars
will address not only the past importance of the FHL educational
program, but they will also focus more broadly on particularly
desirable future directions in the education and training of
biologists. This aspect of the symposium will emphasize both
graduate and postdoctoral training aimed at discovery of new
biological model systems critical to biology and also to medicine.
Hosted by UW-Friday Harbor Labs and other sponsors.
