6th of October, 1997
session on NEUROMUSCULAR CONTROL, 24 March 1998
organised by Johan L. van Leeuwen
The Society for Experimental Biology
Annual Meeting
York, UK 23-27 March 1998
Dear Colleague,
I would like to draw your attention to the above session on NEUROMUSCULAR
CONTROL (24 March 1998), which I am organising for the Annual Meeting of the
Society for Experimental Biology. Below you will find a preliminary
programme of invited speakers for the meeting.
There is one day available for invited and contributed presentations. I
envisage 20 minutes for contributed talks and 30 to 40 minutes for invited
presentations. This includes 5 minutes for discussion. Both theoretical and
experimental contributions can be offered.
There is also the possibility to submit a poster. Poster size should be
within dimensions of 1m high x 1m wide. They should be presented, wherever
possible, in not more than two pieces and the SEB will supply velcro for up
to two panels. Drawing pins must not be used as they damage the poster
boards. Any drawing pins used will be removed by the organisers. All posters
should be accompanied by a photograph of the presenting author.
A special poster meeting is usually organised at Wednesday (from about 8 PM).
Official closing date for submission of presentations is 17 October 1997. I
will however consider all proposals received before 24 October 1997. Posters
should also be submitted before this date. Late poster entries are usually
possible, but guaranties can not be given.
Titles may be submitted to me at the address given below. Please, state
whether you wish to contribute a poster or a presentation, and provide your
e-mail
address and FAX number if available.
Other sessions which may be of interest to you are:
Biological Materials in their Mechanical Environment (23 March),
General Biomechanics (25 March)
General Neurobiology (25 March)
Neurobiology of Feeding (26 and 27 March)
Muscle Development (26 March)
General Animal Respiration (25 March)
Registration fees:
SEB members: 60 pounds per week, 25 pounds per day, 15 pounds per week for
students.
Non-members: 120 pounds per week, 45 pounds per day, 30 pounds per week for
students.

Contributions can conveniently be submitted via this web site.
The SEB can also be reached via:telephone: +44-(0)171 439 8732

Please, bring the conference to the attention of any colleagues who might be
interested.
Yours sincerely,
Johan L. van Leeuwen
