The 7th Annual Meeting of the International Behavioural and Neural Genetics Society (IBANGS) will be held in Sitges, Spain on June 9-12, 2005. IBANGS is a rapidly developing young society that brings together scientists interested in the latest advances in the rapidly developing fields of neurobehavioural genetics. The conference will consist of three days of sessions, including symposia, posters and plenary lectures delivered by invited experts in the fields of genetics, neurobiology and behavioural research.

"Metastasis: genes and functions" is the title of the conference that Joan Massagué, chairman of the department of Cancer Biology and Genetics program at the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, New York, and researcher at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, will give on March 15, 2005 at 12 am at the conference hall at the CRG (CMIMA building). Massagué was recently awarded with the "Premio Principe de Asturias" and is interested in how growth factors, signalling pathways, and gene expression programs control normal cell proliferation and cancer cell metastasis.

For the second year we invite scientists, universities, schools and different areas of the municipal administration of Barcelona to take part in the world celebration that will be realized this year between 14 and on March 20.
