Preparations are busily underway for our 2019 annual meeting at Experimental Biology in Orlando, FL from April 6-9, 2019.
Present your science and network with more than 1,000 anatomists, including faculty, postdocs and students. The largest meeting of anatomical science scientists and educators offers over 50 symposia on topics in Educational Science Research & Teaching, Professional Development, and Basic & Clinical Science Research. The meeting will take place at the Orange County Convention Center, and the AAA host hotel is the Hyatt Regency Orlando. |

Keynote Speaker
Saturday, April 6
Janet Rossant, Ph.D.
University of Toronto
Dr. Janet Rossant is a Senior Scientist in the Developmental & Stem Cell Biology program at The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids), and is a Professor in the Department of Molecular Genetics, and the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the University of Toronto.
Her research interests center on understanding the genetic control of normal and abnormal development in the early mouse embryo using both cellular and genetic manipulation techniques. Her interests in the early embryo have led to the discovery of a novel placental stem cell type, the trophoblast stem cell. Her lab recently developed a CRISPR/Cas9-based genome editing method that allows for highly efficient, precise insertion of large DNA fragments into the mouse embryo genome.

Guest Societies
We are excited to welcome our 2019 Guest Societies:
The International Society for Evolution, Medicine, & Public Health (ISEMPH) and the Anatomical Society (AS). ISEMPH will program sessions and their members of both ISEMPH and AS can register at the member rate for EB 2019.
In addition we have collaborative programming with The Histochemical Society (HCS), Society for Craniofacial Genetics and Developmental Biology (SCGDB), and the other hosts of EB (APS, ASIP, ASBMB and ASPET).
