The 1996 Singer Symposium will be a satellite of two international conferences, "Limb Development and Regeneration" (organized by M. Maden, March 25-28, 1996) and "Regeneration, Growth and Pattern" (Spring Meeting of the British Society for Developmental Biology organized by V. French and J. Slack, March 27-30, 1996) both to be held at the University of York, which is about two and a half hours from London by rail.
The conference format will include 30 minute talks and short platform presentations selected from the submitted abstracts.

Registration and poster mounting will be between 1 and 2 pm and the scientific session will start at 2 pm on Thursday 21 March.
Preliminary Programme: Relationship between development and regeneration / CNS regeneration through evolution / Limb and muscle regeneration in lower and higher vertebrates. Speakers will include: H. Wallace (University of Birmingham, UK); R. Nordlander (Ohio State University, USA); B.M. Carlson (University of Michigan, USA); J.P. Brockes (Ludwig Institute London, UK); S. Dunnett (CTR Brain Repair, MRC Cambridge, UK), J.D.W. Clarke (University College London, UK); R. Borgens (Purdue University, USA), J.S. Edwards (University of Washington, USA); A.
