YLC Steering Committee
Any Questions / issues: contact Tim Levine or Maria Bohnert
What we do:
The main function of the Steering Committee is to provide continuity and support for the YLC. In particular this involves encouraging and supporting organisers of forthcoming YLCs. Also, we support them in selecting subjects and speakers for the conference.

How the Steering Committee is constituted:
The committee that supports future organisers of meetings is constituted by the chair, and includes:
• organisers of the last three conferences
• at least 4 other
members of the yeast lipid community (at least one of whom from USA/Canada), invited following consultation with principal investigators in the field (including those from laboratories participating in recent YLCs or active in the field).
