The Thirtieth Annual
Gibbs Conference on Biothermodynamics
Touch of Nature Conference Center
Carbondale, Illinois
September 24-27, 2016
This year's conference will be held at the Touch of Nature Environmental
Center in Carbondale, IL. An extension of Southern Illinois University, Touch of Nature sits on
over 3,100 acres of forested hills, and the conference center is adjacent Little Grassy Lake. The
environment is ideal for canoeing, hiking, and camping.
Because of the rustic environment, conference participants, particularly those staying in the cabins, should carefully consider what they pack. To assist attendees with packing, participants who are staying in cabins will be notified via email in the weeks before the conference.
Directions to Touch of Nature can be found on their website,
