Decatur, IL

"Chemistry in the Corn Belt"

This year's meeting in Decatur, IL was a great success. There were a total of 24 attendees. Of the non-students, 4 were from industry, 1 from government, and 5 from academia. There were 14 students in attendance from 5 different universities. The final agenda for the meeting is attached below.

Thanks to our corporate sponsors (Monsanto, ABC Laboratories, and SynTech research) 14-$100 travel awards were given to students that presented at the regional meeting. This is in addition to waiving the registration fees for student presenters.

Congrats go to the three student award winners, Adam Simpson, Sarah Hileman, and Patrick Cusaac (all from Oklahoma State University), who all will receive $500 to help with travel expenses to the national SETAC meeting in November in Orlando.
