We are now officially part of the COPUS Year of Science 2009!
Did you know? Our 2009 conference will be the 9th meeting of the AOU in Philadelphia since the Union's inception, second only to New York City. The last Philly meeting was in 1942 ... if we don't count the 1976 meeting at Haverford College.
