 Okay, good morning everyone. I will crash the gavel and bring to order the 65th meeting of the National Advisory Council for Human Genome Research. You can tell something's a little different because I'm standing at the podium and I normally am sitting. And in a couple minutes you will see why things are a little bit different, how we're opening up the morning. But before we get to that, I'm going to turn this over to Mark to deal with some routine business. Right. So the first thing I'd like to do, and I'm not sure I'd characterize this as routine, is introduce a new council member, Tony Monaco, who's the president of Tufts University, and we're very grateful that he's willing to share some of his time, as we're grateful for all the rest of you. So welcome Tony. The liaisons, introduce the liaisons to the council, who many of whom are familiar to you, because I've been here before, but not everyone, Joe Bachman from the American Society of Human Genetics over here, Ellen Giarelli from the International Society of Nurses in Genetics is joining us via the webcast, James O'Leary from the Genetic Alliance, Rhonda Schoenberg from the National Society of Genetic Counselors is also joining by webcast, and Mike Watson from the American College of Medical Genetics. There are two new staff members who I would like to introduce. One is Chevella Goldner, who has joined us as a senior program analyst. Chevella, can you stand up? And Gene Passamani, who has joined us as an advisor in genomic medicine. A couple of guests who I'd like to introduce from the American Society of Molecular Pathology, Mary Williams and Melvin Lisson, and from Life Technologies Company, Jamie Rupert and Heather Verdo, and Francis Correa, and I can't really read your association, International Medical News Group, is that right? And there are also several additional guests who I'm going to let Eric introduce on that in just a moment. So just two new, two other things I need to do. One is to get the minutes for the February meeting presented, were they distributed? Have you seen them? Yeah. Okay. I didn't do them last this time, so I'm sort of lost track of them. There any comments, any corrections, additions to the minutes that anyone wants to make? If not, can I have a motion for approval? Second. All in favor? Anybody opposed? And then last thing is I'll just call your attention to the future meeting dates. On the agenda we've listed the meeting dates for the next six council, next two years worth of council meetings. If anybody in the council has anything to tell us about that, please let either me or Comfort know. And with that I will turn it over to Eric.
