    Abstract

    A meeting of the EMBO Conference Series on Replication and Segregation of Chromosomes was held in Geilo, Norway, 16-20 June, 2008, under a scenic backdrop of high mountains. The meeting focused on the mechanistic details of replication and segregation primarily from well-characterized systems. Because the same basic principles govern chromosome maintenance in all three domains of life, participants encountering parallel processes in distantly-related organisms were stimulated to interact. Another successful aspect of the meeting was the quality of the posters, several of which were chosen for platform presentation and two for special rewards. The organizers Kirsten Skarstad and Erik Boye deserve praise for their skillful organization of the meeting, the highlights of which are discussed below.
