14:00 - 17:30 ISSFAL 2004 Registration and poster mounting
18:00 - 19:30 ISSFAL 2004 Official opening and welcome reception
Welcome!
I am delighted to welcome you to the LCPUFAs and Maternal and Child Health Workshop in Brighton. This Workshop is a follow-up to previous successful conferences in Barcelona and Kansas City and weare delighted to be able to hold this meeting as a prelude to ISSFAL 2004. We hope that the programme provides an opportunity to extend our understanding of the relationship of LCPUFAs tocognitive function, and also to consider the emerging research on the possible roles of LCPUFAs in non-neural development. I am grateful to all the speakers who have kindly agreed to contribute and look forward to a lively and stimulating Workshop.
Professor Stewart Forsyth, Workshop Host.
