Call for Proposals

The LAS Executive Committee and the LAS 2008 Conference Committee are delighted to announce this initial call for papers and posters for our 82nd Annual Meeting to be held on Friday, March 14, 2008 on the campus of Northwestern State University in Natchitoches.

A comprehensive program is planned, including a keynote speaker,
discipline-focused breakout sessions, student paper/poster competition and
and business luncheon.

This meeting is an excellent venue to celebrate scientific excellence in Louisiana and to foster discussion among peer groups of scientists. The LAS encourages especially presentations from both undergraduate and graduate students as the annual conference is a supportive environment in which students will have an opportunity to hone their presentation skills, make connections with other scientists in their field, and become informed about study and research opportunities within the state. Your participation is requested not only by your attending but also by presenting a paper or poster in one of 15 conference tracks.

If you have any questions, comments, or suggestions, please contact the academy's president at Moustapha Diack.
