AAPA 2005 - Abstracts
Dar,
Well, I guess I’ll have to do it. Thanks for bringing this up.
I diligently downloaded the abstracts and then sifted through them, doing my own biased picking, and turning the results into my own manageable PDF. Here is the TOC, with, in order to show even more bias, the ones (
Red) I would really like to read as real papers in the near future.
