News from the In Vitro Animal Cell Sciences (IVACS) Section
Greetings to the Members of the IVACS Section:
I encourage all of the IVACS membership to attend the 2012 World Congress on In Vitro Biology in Bellevue, Washington (June 3 – June 7). Remember to register for the meeting and encourage you students, post-docs, and colleagues to submit an abstract and attend the meeting. The Program Planning Committee is working hard to recruit excellent speakers for all of the sessions.
