RASMB'98 call for abstracts

Hi All

This is a reminder call re. oral and poster abstracts for the RASMB meeting
to be held in Melbourne Feb 5-7, 1998.  I attach below the WWW address and
an up-to-date list of speakers.  

Re. registration: Arrangements have been made to use credit card payment
via the Lorne Protein Conference facilities.  Either include payment for
RASMB with the registration for Lorne (attach a note of explanation) or
attach the separate registration form (available from our RASMB WWW site).
Sending a cheque (check) made out to  "Reversible Associations Conference,
1998" accomplishes the same thing but may not be as convenient. 

Best wishes

Geoff Howlett
