The objective of this year's workshop remains the same, i.e. to bring together an international group of scientists to present their findings on genome organization and expression, population biology and ecology of arthropod disease vectors (mosquitoes, flies, bugs, ticks, etc.). The development of new tools and strategies (e.g. post-genomics, transgenesis, release of GM arthropods, etc.) for the control of disease through the control of pathogen transmission and their impact on society will be one of the main issues to be discussed. </pre><pre style="line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: 'Courier New'; ">The meeting will cover a broad area of topics while maintaining a small size in order to foster close interactions between the participants. It will last five days with morning (9:00-1:00 pm) and evening sessions (5:00-9:00 pm). The dates indicated reflect the arrival/departure days, while the sessions will last from Monday morning till Friday evening. About 120 participants will be accepted by vote of the Organizing Committee, and as a rule, only one participant will be able to attend from any single lab. Exceptions will be made, by decision of the Organizing Committee, for exceptional postdocs or advanced graduate students upon recommendation of their respective advisors. It is probable that applicant numbers will exceed the available number of slots. Every attempt will be made to make sure that the attendance is representative of the research community worldwide. The entire application process will be done electronically.</pre><pre style="line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: 'Courier New'; ">All participants will be required to present a talk of about fifteen minutes on their work. If more than one person attends from the same lab, the additional participants will be asked to present a poster.</pre><pre style="line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: 'Courier New'; ">Online registration will be possible after December 15, 2010 and the deadline for receipt of applications is March 10, 2011. For logistical purposes the Organizing Committee will adhere strictly to those deadlines. Please note that participation at the meeting is limited to the individual accepted. A registration fee of 600.00 Euro must be remitted upon acceptance. Local expenses in Crete (full board, double room occupancy) will be covered from that fee. Participants are expected to finance their travel to Kolymbari. Unfortunately, EMBO discontinued the support of this meeting in the frame of its Conference Series, thus we will not be able to support participants from DECs through either a travel grant of the covering of the local expenses. We apologize for this.</pre><pre style="line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: 'Courier New'; ">Please distribute this message to your colleagues at your, and other institutions.</pre><pre style="line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: 'Courier New'; ">Accepted applicants will be notified by April 8, 2011</pre><pre style="line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: 'Courier New'; ">For further details, please check the meeting's home page available at:</pre><pre style="line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: 'Courier New'; "><a href="http://www.anobase.org/conferences/home_2011.html" target="_blank" saprocessedanchor="true" style="line-height: 17px; font-weight: inherit; text-decoration: underline; color: blue; cursor: pointer; ">http://www.anobase.org/conferences/home_2011.html</a></pre><pre style="line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: 'Courier New'; "> </pre><pre style="line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: 'Courier New'; ">************************************************ </pre><pre style="line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: 'Courier New'; ">Prof. Christos (Kitsos) Louis</pre><pre style="line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: 'Courier New'; ">IMBB-FORTH & Dept.
