	Immigration Course 2000 - Resources
		In this talk, I will describe a computational approach to studying vertebrate genome evolution by exploiting the growing availability of diverse biological data via the World Wide Web, with an emphasis on the computer science research questions that arise in this work.
		Determination of the functions of all expressed proteins represents one of the major upcoming challenges in computational molecular biology.
		After a whirlwind review of high school biology, we will discuss the origins of computational biology and how innovation in biotechnology drives research in this field.

	ToL: Phylogeny or Classification
		Most researchers feel that the groups we give names to in our classifications should correspond to single branches or clades on the phylogeny: if we wish to talk about the history of a group, it is easier to do so if the named entities are cohesive portions of that history.
		Calling "Phylogeny" by the name "classification" confuses and (in the eyes of many) demeans phylogenetic biology in the same way calling "molecular biology" by the name "classification" would.
		Systematics has been so indelibly equated with the naming system systematics uses that we introduce our students to organismal diversity through nomenclature rather than the scientific study of organismal diversity.

	MOSS 2003
		Immediately preceding this conference, there will be two day conference (September 6th and 7th) "Molecular Systematics of Bryophytes: Progress, Problems, and Perspectives", hosted by the Missouri Botanical Garden and co-sponsored by the Deep Gene Research Coordination Network.
		MOSS 2003 will begin with a talk by Brent Mishler, the director of Deep Gene, on the importance of integrating systematics and genomics.
		The schedule will also allow plenty of opportunity for informal interaction.

	Arousing Biophilia
		EOW: That's because we are facing an entrenched power structure motivated by what I call "molecular supremacy." (laughter) We need to overcome this apartheid (laughter) and open participation and democracy to systematics--for the good of the world.
		EOW: I think that the expression that might fit much of the kind of writing we are talking about here is the Homeric narrative.
		EOW: Well, I think that the new environmental movement, with all of its publicized revelations, rising public concern, conversion of Congressmen, and so on, will empower the growth of environmental and evolutionary biology, including systematics, without our doing much more about it.

	Abstracts
		There is a need for a re synthesis of our knowledge about the reproductive biology of legumes, not only for its application in systematics but also to clarify other aspects like species to species relationship, phylogeny and others.
		Talk — The floral biology of legumes is vast and relatively complex.
		Molecular phylogeny of the genus Caulerpa (Caulerpales, Chlorophyta) inferred from chloroplast tufA gene

	Young Systematist’s Forum of The Systematics Association
		Based on materials from recent collections, this talk will outline the diversity of Ancharius, as well as test current hypotheses of phylogenetic relationships of the Anchariidae to other catfishes using both morphological and molecular data.
		They have previously been considered a sister group to either the marine catfish family Ariidae or the African catfish family Mochokidae.

		1999 Q.-Y. Xiang, Circumscription and Relationships of Cornales, Invited talk* at the IBC and XVI International Botanical Congress symposium: Phylogeny and Systematics of the Asteridae, St. Louis, MO, USA.
		Other types of molecular data, such as microsatellites, AFLPs, and ISSRs are used to study polyploidy and natural hybridization in the dogwoods and buckeyes.
		The dogwood group (Cornales) has been our main focus, but we also have ongoing research projects involving the buckeye genus Aesculus and the federally endangered smooth coneflower, Echinacea laevigata.

	Steinhart Aquarium - California Academy of Sciences
		Talk to aquarium biologists, watch as a biologist dives in the coral reef tank, and learn about taking care of aquatic creatures at home!
		The Aquarium offers unique opportunities for studies of live animals and contains an enormous library of aquatic animal tissues for research at the molecular level.
		The researchers at the Department of Ichthyology at the California Academy of Sciences delve mainly in the branch of science known as systematics.
