SPONSORSHIP
Vasculata 2004 is an activity of
NAVBO
The plan is for
four (4) 35-minute lectures in the morning from 9 until
noon, followed by a
break. In the afternoon, there will be breakout meetings to discuss and expand
upon ideas arising from the morning lectures. These breakout meetings will
include a faculty leader and enough faculty and/or fellows to assure a good
discussion. Each lecture will have a reading assignment (to be included
in the syllabus). The idea is to give the students enough reading so
that the lecture can be presented at a higher than elementary level. For
example, if the lecture were to be on zebrafish, then there would be readings on
basic embryology and some key papers in the field so the lecturer would not need
to re-cover the basics. We also want to salt the meeting with high-tech
lectures relevant to CVB. Tentative topics are as follows: READING ASSIGNMENTS (Click here for reading assignments) The morning lectures will be held in the University of Washington Center on Human Development and Disability Experimental Education Unit Lecture Hall 150.

Specific room numbers will be announced at the end of the morning sessions.

The prices for standard rooms (located in Haggett Hall) are $61.00 per person per night single occupancy, and $45 per person per night in doubles. If guests wish to be assigned a double room they must make their own arrangements for a roommate or they will be assigned and charged the single rate. Rooms have twin beds, a local access telephone with voicemail, and shared bath facilities. Ethernet access is available in sleeping rooms for those who bring their laptops. Bed linen and towels are provided. Beds are made and fresh towels are exchanged daily. Bed linen is changed once per week during extended stays.

Meal Allowance: The nightly rates above includes a non-refundable, non-transferable $15 per day meal allowance for guests staying 3 or more nights. Upon check in, guests are issued a conference debit card. Each morning the conference card will be programmed with the prearranged daily dollar amount. Each time guests make a purchase, the amount is deducted from the balance. After each purchase, the remaining dollar amount shows on the cash register so guests can keep track of their remaining balances. As there is a minimum dollar amount required to spend each day, money not spent by 7:30 p.m. will be eliminated from the guest’s conference card. Guests who exceed their allotted balance can pay the difference in cash.
