Last chance to get your name in for BioBeers this Wednesday, starting at 4:30 PM at the Flying Dog Brewery (see Map).

Attendance is expected to top 50 people this time, which will be a new record. I also want to acknowledge a couple of folks for helping out.

First Aerotek Frederick for sponsoring our “tipping fee”, which means you get to go home with of “free” pint-sized sampling glass.

FiberCell Systems for sponsoring Brats for mass consumption

MedImmune, for bringing some other tube meats and buns for 50, which will hopefully be more than the number of “MedImmuners” in attendance

Gwendolyn Gainer of TeraMark for bringing the chips.

And also Proventsure for being our “hardware” sponsor, with napkins, plates and such. Gary is also going to give a presentation on Computational Biology whuch sounds very interesting from the previews I have seen.

We are going to kick things off, after a few samples of Flying Dog Ales, with a brief presentation by me, then Gary, with tours in between, effective professional networking and grilled tube meats. There is also a rumor that the Gazette will be coming by to cover the event. I will also have my camera in-hand and will post photos later this week.

So please let me know, if you haven’t already, if you plan on attending. We have rom for a bunch more, but I don’t want anyone to go home hungry (and don’t want to break the bank for glass sponsorship).
