and we may not be able to accommodate all posters; we expect to send
out notifications by April 30 or earlier.

The workshop is designed to provide ample time for discussion and
interaction between the participants, as one of its aims is to
facilitate research collaboration. Thanks to the generous support by
our sponsors, registration is free, and travel support is available for
students and postdocs presenting posters. If you would like to apply
for travel support please note this in your abstract submission.
We expect to make funding decisions by April 30.

Finally, we note that this year we will have a best poster award given
at the workshop. Barring conflicts of interest, all presented posters
will be automatically eligible for the award.

See you in Davis!
