Hormones and Energy Metabolism (Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology, 111)

The Twelfth Annual Midwest Conference On Endocrinology And Metabolism Continued The Tradition Of Selecting A Topic Of Inter­ Est To A Wide Variety Of Scientists With Interests In Biology. The Conference An Hormones And Energy Metabolism Was Dedicated Appro­ Priately To Dr. Samuel A. Brody, A Leader In Research In This Field As Described By Professor Johnson In This Volume. A Particular Feature Of These Conferences Has Been The Large Proportion Of Time Devoted To Discussion Of Each Paper And The Pub­ Lished Proceedings Have Included Edited Transcripts Of These Dis­ Cussions. Unfortunately, Due To Malfunction Of The Recording Sys­ Tem, Major Portians Of The Discussions Were Lost And, Despite Much Effort, Insufficient Was Salvageable Tobe Meaningful And Helpful. Consequently, The Editors Decided To Omit Completely The Discus­ Sions Except For A Communication Provided By Dr. Woodside. We Again Express Our Appreciation To The Staff Of Conferences And Short Courses, University Of R~issouri-columbia Extension Divi­ Sion And Especially To Dr. John Swanson Who Helped Organize The Multitude Of Administrative Details; To ~lrs. Linda Bennett, Cps, For Her Continuing Excellent Efforts In Typing The Manuscripts For Publication; And Particularly To The Sponsors, Without Whom There Would Have Been No Conference. Ralph R.
