Plant Biology 2010
CHILD ATTENDANCE POLICY
Can I bring my child to the meeting?
Plant Biology is family friendly and we welcome parents of minor children (ages 0-17) to attend the meeting. Please note that modifications to this policy have been instituted for 2010 in response to feedback from the 2009 annual meeting. To ensure the safety and care of minors, we have the following policy for attendees. There are no exceptions.
