Dear CSU Faculty, FCG, Chairs, Deans and Friends:

The 2015 CSU Biotechnology Symposium registration system is now open! 

CSUPERB sent out poster abstract decisions last week; as a result, the symposium registration system is now open to non-presenting faculty, students and administrators.  The link to the registration system, as well as the program-at-a-glance, is available at the symposium website.

Please feel free to forward this email widely!

CSU Faculty/Staff/Postdoc Registration Information:

All CSU faculty/staff/postdocs will be charged a $125 registration fee payable by credit card in the registration system.  Registration includes lodging as well as Friday and Saturday lunch/dinner provided by CSUPERB at the Santa Clara Marriott, along with access to all sessions at the symposium (a total value of over $629 this year).  Please note:  To save money, we are not offering catered breakfast for symposium attendees this year, so plan accordingly.  CSUPERB provides transportation reimbursements to campuses (up to $150) for CSU Faculty/Staff/Postdoc attendees.  This amount is in addition to lodging and meal costs covered by CSUPERB and is inclusive of any parking fees. These funds may not be used to reimburse the required $125 symposium registration fee.
