The After the Genome meetings were started in 1995 to help the biological community think about and prepare for the changes in biological research in the face of genomic information. This workshop brings together intellectuals from subject fields far outside of conventional biology with the expectation that this will help focus thinking beyond the immediate future. Hence the subtitle for this year's meeting: "Envisioning Biology in the Year 2010". Accordingly, the organizers brought together a broadly multi-disciplinary group of thinkers and working scientists.
