VIDEOCAST AVAILABLE: Both the morning and afternoon sessions will be available for remote viewing via VideoCast, NIH's streaming video service.

Access to the VideoCast will require RealPlayer software. Links to download RealPlayer and the list of VideoCast events can be found at http://videocast.nih.gov/default.asp. Questions submitted by VideoCast viewers will be addressed either during the session or after the fact.
