We are once again happy to invite all of our members to the annual NVTB-retreat on May 23 & 24 (2019) in Schoorl. As always, our meeting aims to have a pleasant, informal, and yet informative meeting where scientists and students working in Theoretical Biology will present and discuss their latest research. This year, the meeting is held (big surprise!) at Dopersduin. Full registration includes tea/coffee, breakfast and other meals, and an overnight stay at Dopersduin.

On Thursday evening we will have the annual meeting (general assembly) with members of the NVTB. After this meeting we traditionally take a long, nocturnal hike to the beach and back.

We invite you to submit an abstract for giving a talk. You may choose between a short (10 min + 5 min discussion) talk, or a normal one (20 min + 5 min discussion). We encourage young scientists (master students and PhD students) to apply for talks, and to not hesitate to present unfinished work. The deadline for registration as well as abstract submission is the 3th of May. You will be notified by May 10th whether your submission has been accepted. The final program, including all abstracts, will be sent to NVTB members and subscribers to the meeting by e-mail, and will be available on the website.

If you have further questions please contact Bram.

Kind regards,

Kirsten ten Tusscher, Bram van Dijk, Jeroen Meijer & Timo van Eldijk
