ABOUT COLD SPRING HARBOR SYMPOSIA ON QUANTITATIVE BIOLOGY
Since 1933, major discoveries in biology--such as the structure of DNA, the genetic code, the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and RNA interference (RNAi)--have been presented and debated at the Symposium held every summer at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory in New York.
Each Symposium focuses on a different and timely area of biological research and is attended by the leading figures in the field. The speakers are handpicked luminaries and rising stars who also publish a detailed discussion of the work they present in the annual Cold Spring Harbor Symposia on Quantitative Biology volume.
The online versions of these articles are published continually, shortly after acceptance, ahead of the print issue of Cold Spring Harbor Symposia on Quantitative Biology. Also available online is the historic 70-Year Archive, which includes digitized versions of all earlier volumes, together with historical introductions to the fields at the time and photographs of the participants in action.
