3rd Semiannual Bay Area Population Genomics Conference

The schedule for BAPG III at Stanford is all set. This time and hopefully in the future BAPG is sponsored by the Ecology and Evolution Group at the Stanford Biology Department. We have an exceptional lineup of speakers from Berkeley, UC Santa Cruz and Stanford. The meeting will start at 9AM with coffee and will end with lunch and a poster session.
