A new Canterbury tale: the eighth International Meeting on Yeast Apoptosis in Canterbury, UK, 2-6 May 2011.

摘要

This spring, more than a hundred scientists from around the world gathered in Canterbury, the historic city in the county of Kent in South East England, to attend the eighth International Meeting on Yeast Apoptosis (IMYA). As with every IMYA conference since its inception in 2002, the feeling of being part of a community that is almost a family was evident. In addition, this year's meeting has shown that the field of yeast programmed cell death (PCD) is growing, not only in numbers, but also in its thematic scope.
