Hi Phil,

I'm planning on attending and am hoping that a cheese-less pizza option can be available (dairy allergy and intolerance). I've always gotten a small pizza and there are always BABS eaters who eat whatever I can't, if any. If toppings on that one are possible to itemize without added expense, then anchovies, olives, and onions would be ideal. Otherwise, just standard vegetarian toppings are fine. I hope everyone else isn't as much hassle as all this!

Thanks very much for hosting such a great session.

See you soon,
Bruce

Bay Area Biosystematists (BABS) Meeting

Tuesday evening, 22 May 2012

at UC Davis,  1022 Life Sciences Building

"PHYLOGENOMICS AND SYSTEMATICS"


The genomics era holds great promise (and challenge) to systematics. There is the prospect of generating sequence data that will provide unprecedented resolution of phylogenetic relationships across the Tree of Life, and a much improved understanding of the tempo and mode of evolution. Join us for two talks on phylogenomics, along with plenty of discussion, leavened by pizza and beer.


Featuring presentations byŠ

HOLLY BIK, Postdoctoral Researcher, Eisen Lab, UC Davis Genome Center

"Assembling multi-species genomic data"

andŠ

BASTIEN BOUSSAU, Postdoctoral Fellow, Huelsenbeck Lab, UC Berkeley

"Methods of phylogenetic inference for genome-scale data sets"


Schedule and venue:
5:30 pm: social gathering with beverages (beer and soft drinks) and informal pizza dinner: cost ca. $10, to be collected at door, 1022 Life Sciences, UC Davis campus.
    7:00 - 9:00 pm: talks, followed by discussion, in same room.

Reservations required for beverages and dinner (but not the talk). Please email reservations to your host, Phil Ward: <mailto:[email protected]>[email protected] by Sunday, May 20

Parking is available in the West Entry Parking Structure, immediately west of Life Sciences. If coming from the Bay Area take the Hwy. 113 exit off I-80, and then the first exit off Hwy 113, which is Hutchison Drive. This will bring you directly to the parking garage. Or, as Google Maps would say:
