Conference CANCELLED due to Major Flooding in the Iowa City area.


Dear Evolution of Sex and Recombination meeting participants,

As you may know, eastern Iowa is experiencing historic flooding. Water levels and flooding will exceed record levels next week in Iowa City. Many roads in and around Iowa City including parts of Interstate 80 are closed. The University of Iowa has cancelled all non-essential activities and is working with the National Guard to prevent water breaching the UI and Iowa City utility, sewage and water systems. Due to this emergency situation the Evolution of Sex and Recombination meeting has been cancelled.

We understand that many of you have complex travel plans that include the Evolution meetings in Minneapolis. Please change your travel plans as needed as our ability to help is limited given the circumstances.

Thank you,
Organizing Committee
