1998: Genomic Imprinting Symposium
Durham, NC: Welcome to the Genomic Imprinting and Environmental Disease Susceptibility Symposium webpage. Over 150 scientists from throughout the world attended this 3 day joint NIEHS/Duke University meeting at the Washington Duke Inn, Durham, NC. Many people were unable to attend this conference because of time conflicts and space limitations. Therefore, we have placed the both the symposium presentations and abstracts on this webpage.
ORGANIZERS: Randy L. Jirtle (Duke University), J. Carl Barret (NIEHS), and Fred Tyson (NIEHS)
