In suort of this mission statement, the Green Mountain DNA Conference oranizers are committed to: •Each Conference has aProvidin aservice to the research and develo ment communitin the forensic sciences. recurrin thematicto icand strives to be the overall best meetinin its field. •overnment,rocess for attendance at conferences ba licationsts and educators fromactive analo enProvidin an academia, and industry. •format and site locations that encourae extensive formal and informal discussion and a sense of communitAssurin a among the attendees. •uentublished scientific results and on the consereviousl unresentation ofon the "off the record"Placin a remium ad hoc peerdiscussion with the intention that presentations will not bea forum for the advertisement of particular commercial roducts. •Usin theConference as aositive influence on the culture of science as reflected in oenness to a diversitof new ideas and concets, outreach tolobal science, and establishment of an ealitarian environment for scientific debate. •forum for the sProvidin aand crstallize new researchnthesis and evaluation of new concets as a means to clarif directions. •Making the Conference available to the worldwide scientific community. ORIGIN, PURPOSE & COMMITMENT OF THE CONFERENCES The Green Mountain DNA Conference was initiated bDr. Eric Buel, of the Vermont Forensic Laborator, who reconized the difficultin establishinood, direct communication between scientists, whether workinin the same sub ect area or in interdisciplinary research.The Green Mountain DNA Conference promotes discussions and the free exchange of ideas at the research frontiers of forensic science.Scientists with commonrofessional interests come toether for three das of intense discussion and examination of the most advanced as ects of their field.This Conferencerovide a valuable means of disseminating information and ideas in a way that cannot be achieved through the usual channels of communication  ublications andresentations at lare scientific meetins. ADMISSION QUALIFICATIONS Attendance at the Conference is determined on a firstcome firstserve basis until the maximum number of attendees is reached. Atthat oint,a waitinlist isenerated in the event of a cancellation.To encoura e a wide varietof re resentation, the maximum number of attendees from a sin le institution/affiliation is set at four.However, if the maximum number of attendees is not reached by a predetermined cutoff date, then additional attendees (more than four) from an institution/affiliation are allowed to attend.As the host, the Vermont Forensic Laboratorrovides the staff reuired to conduct the meetinand will be allowed to exceed the maximum number of attendeeser institution/affiliation. CONFERENCE FORMAT To encourage open communication, each member of the Conference agrees that any information presented, whether in a formal talk,oster session, or discussion, is arivate communication from the individual makinthe contribution and is resented with the restriction that such information is not forublic use.The recordinof lectures ban means,the photography of slide or poster material, and printed reference to Green Mountain DNA Conference papers and discussion is rohibited.
