The Society for Research on Biological Rhythms was established 30 years ago, assembled by a group of visionaries whose commitment to research, education, and scientific exchange laid the foundation for SRBR to become a leading voice in propelling the biological rhythms field into the forefront of life science and medicine . To further this remarkable progress, SRBR 2016 promises to be an exceptional forum for hearing the latest cutting-edge research, reengaging with colleagues from years past, and exchanging ideas that will shape the future of the field with a talented and diverse group of chronobiologists from around the globe . Between scientific sessions be sure to take advantage of the hiking trails, golf courses, swimming pools, tennis courts, gym equipment and other amenities at Innisbrook Resort, as well as nearby beaches and beautiful Tampa Bay . All the scientific discourse, personal interactions and leisure activities that you will soon experience would not be possible without many people working behind the scenes who helped organize this meeting . I wish to sincerely thank the SRBR 2016 Program Chair, Nicolas Cermakian, and our Professional Development Committee Chair, Karen Gamble, our Junior Faculty Workshop Chair, Ilia Karatsoreos, and the Professional Development Committees for kicking off the meeting with terrific educational and career development events, Kelli Tometich and the Parthenon Management Group team for their meticulous planning to keep this meeting running smoothly, and our Fundraising Chair, Erik Herzog, who raised a record level of support from many generous government, corporate and individual sponsors . In addition to planning SRBR 2016, your SRBR Board of Directors made quiet progress on multiple fronts including hiring a new management firm to handle our Society and meeting activities, initiating a Governmental Affairs Committee to advocate for circadian biology and sleep, appointing committees to choose and confer the first Directors’ Awards and Junior Faculty Research Awards, and enhancing diversity at biennial meetings by establishing the SRBR Diversity Travel Awards and SRBR International Travel Fellowships . I am forever grateful for the time and hard work that all SRBR committees devoted to strengthening our Society and advancing the biological rhythms field . Finally, I want to thank all of you for being here and sharing your insights, energy and passion for biological rhythms – which is really what makes this meeting such a success . These are exciting times in the biological rhythms field, and I hope you will take full advantage of the opportunities that await you at SRBR 2016 . Best wishes for a great meeting! Paul E .
