The following is a list of topics presented at the MREC conference.   The presentations are segregated according to category: full session, break-out session, and poster session.  Select the topic of interest to obtain information concerning the name of the speaker, affiliation, and a summary of the material presented.  You may also review the actual presentation where indicated.

There were a few changes in the program, due to conflicts with some of the speakers. Dick Reines substituted for Mark Cook, and the session by David Allumbaugh was moved to the last session on Friday.
