[bionet.technology.conversion] 12th Symposium on Biotechnology for Fuels and Chemicals

P2269@com.qz.se ("ENG-LEONG FOO ", MIRCEN-STOCKHOLM) (11/10/89)

Many thanks for the announcement of the 12th Symposium on Biotechnology
for Fuels and Chemicals, Dr Elias Greenbaum.

The Special Topic Discussions are of particular interests to
me since I have arranged "computer workshops" electronically.
If there are sufficient interested parties, a pre-symposium
discussion (computer workshop) could be arranged in this bboard.

Could you provide more information on the scopes for the Topic
Discussion ?

Regards, Foo

Dear Foo:

The Special Topic Discussion Groups deal with timely and perhaps controversial
topics in the field of biotechnology for fuels and chemicals.  They are informa
l
groupings of 10-20 people.  The discussion leader for each group is chosen
after we get an indication of interest from the people who send in their
registration forms.  We probably won't choose discussion leaders until February
1990.

I will be happy to work with you to arrange a "computer workshop."  Can you
describe to me how this workshop would operate?

Eli
