1990 Gordon Research Conferences The aim of the Gordon Research Conferences is to extend the frontiers of science by fostering a free and informal exchange of ideas among those actively involved in research in particular fields. At each conference, meetings are held in the morning and evening, Monday through Friday, with the exception of Friday evening. The afternoons are available for recreation, reading, or participation in discussion groups. To promote discussion and to protect individual rights, it is the established requirement of each conference that no information be used without specific authorization of the individual making the contribution. Recording of lectures and photographing of slides are also prohibited. The unique concept of the conferences was established by Neil Gordon of Johns Hopkins University in 1931. Gordon foresaw the importance of establishing direct communication between scientists while removing the distractions at larger meetings. This year, eight conferences are of particular interest to analytical chemists: analytical chemistry, electron spectroscopy, lasers in medicine and biology, physical electrochemistry, separation and purification, statistics in chemistry and chemical engineering, vibrational spectroscopy, and magnetic resonance in biology and medicine. Technical programs for these conferences follow. Other conferences of interest include synthetic membranes; organic geochemistry; diffraction methods in molecular biology; fuel science; fractals; environmental sciences—water; computational chemistry; zeolitic and layered materials; solid-state chemistry; origin of life; nuclear proteins, chromatin structure, and gene regulation; chemistry at interfaces; corrosion; solid-state studies in ceramics; catecholamines; biomolecular recognition and immobilization; bioelectrochemistry; biopolymers; and atomic and molecular interactions. Conferences will be held both in New Hampshire and Rhode Island. For the
New Hampshire conferences, the fixed fee for resident participants is $360, which covers registration, room (double occupancy), and meals. The $320 fee for nonresident conferees covers registration and meals. The $270 guest fee includes room and meals only. For conferences held in Rhode Island, fees are $375 for resident participants, $320 for nonresident conferees, and $285 for guests. If registration cards with advance payment are postmarked at least three weeks prior to the conference, fees are $50 less than those quoted above. Additional information can be obtained from Alexander Cruickshank, Gordon Research Conferences, Gordon Research Center, University of Rhode Island, Kingston, RI 02881-0801 (401783-4011 or 3372). From June 11 to August 24, Cruickshank can be reached at Colby-Sawyer College, New London, NH 03257 (603-526-2870).
