ARM 2005
2005 Annual Research Meeting
Dates: 29 September - 1st October
Venue: Rome, Italy
The Generation Challenge Program 2005 Annual Research Meeting was held in Rome, Italy, from 29 September through 1 October, with over 150 scientists from 27 countries participating. A poster session was initiated this year, and 87 GCP project posters were presented. Almost every current GCP project PI gave a presentation of their project as well, and PDFs of those presentations can be found below. Please contact the PI directly for copies of individual slides or with questions.
The GCP also held a ?brainstorming session? to collect the feedback and input of participants on what the GCP should have as outputs by 2008 (our mid-way point) and how we should get there. A three-hour session on the last day of the meeting was devoted to this brainstorming exercise, and the participants were split into five large groups and then many smaller breakout groups to discuss a set of output categories and outputs and how to develop projects that will produce those outputs. The reports from the brainstorming session are still trickling in to GCP Headquarters, but the first batch can be found below, and we?ll keep adding them as they come in.

The ARM is an excellent forum for scientists in GCP projects to meet with their project teams and other GCP scientists, share their research results and jointly plan for the upcoming year. The Generation Challenge Programme’s 2007 Annual Research Meeting was held on African soil for the first time in Benoni, South Africa from 12–16 September.
We welcomed more than 150 scientists from around the world, who came to discuss and plan GCP activities. Most GCP Principal Investigators presented their projects. GCP wishes to thank the African Centre for Gene Technologies (ACGT) for hosting the 2007 Annual Research Meeting with support from the University of the Witwatersrand, an ACGT partner.Special thanks to Jane Morris (
