Society Awards Nomination Deadline: May 1
Each year, the Biophysical Society honors
its members and recognizes excellence in
biophysics through its Awards Program.
Nominations are now being accepted for
eight awards, which will be presented at
the 2015 Annual Meeting in Baltimore,
Maryland, February 7–11. For more
information about the Biophysical Society
Awards, visit

During heavy snowstorms in the Eastern
US, San Francisco welcomed researchers
from over 46 countries with blue skies and
unseasonably warm and sunny weather.
With over 850 poster presentations each
day, poster sessions
never stopped buzz-
ing. The speaker
presentations in the
more than 24 sympo-
sia and workshops and
63 platform sessions
added to the palpably
electric atmosphere.
Twelve subgroup pro-
grams on the Saturday before the meeting's
official start saw standing room
only attendance.
It was another great meeting where re-
searchers came to bridge the sciences to
explore, understand, and solve biological
problems and create new collaborations
and research communities.

highlights from the Meeting, see
