Dear Colleague:
We wish to present to you Proceedings from the
Inter-Agency Workshop on Metabolic Engineering held at the
National Science Foundation on May31, 2000.
The Workshop was a combination of
a Grantees Conference in the morning, and a Workshop in the
afternoon to discuss future research support of Metabolic
Engineering. The hard copy version of this report has abstracts
from each of the Grantees presentations in the morning as well
as a summary of the afternoon Workshop. The electronic version
of this report, which is available at:
http://www.metabolicengineering.gov/me2000/ReportTOC.htm
has slide information from each of the Grantee
presentations as well as slide information from the afternoon
presentations.
Both versions of this report have additional
information relevant to the activities of the MetabolicEngineering
Working Group (MEWG).
It is anticipated that there will be another
Inter-Agency Workshop similar to the one presented here. For
current information on the activities of the MEWG, please refer
to the MEWG web-site shown above.
We thank you for your interest in the
activities of the MEWG and invite your inquiries regarding these
activities.
With best regards, I am
Sincerely yours,
Fred G. Heineken
Chair
Working Group on Metabolic Engineering
