4th Annual VIVA NMR Symposium
Hi All,
I am pleased to announce that the 4th Annual VIVA NMR symposium will take place Monday, June 21st at Simon Fraser University (Burnaby Mountain Campus) in Burnaby B.C. Yes, that is only 2 weeks away! We apologize for the short notice but certain events have made it necessary to organize it early this year.
The aim of this one day symposium is to bring together NMR users, researchers and managers from western Canada and the north-west of the USA to share information on topics of general NMR interest and to foster the development of an NMR community. Talks or poster presentations by graduate students are especially encouraged. Talks must be registered before June 15th, all other registrations will end on June 20th.
On-line registration is now available at http://www.sfu.ca/~vivanmr
The symposium is designed to be affordable and thanks to generous sponsorship by Bruker Canada and Agilent Technologies (formerly Varian Inc) the registration fees are only $20 for students and $50 for non-students which includes the lunch banquet and afternoon poster social session.
The program will consist of 15-20 minute talks, a lunch banquet at Club Ilia, and a poster session/social gathering.
A meeting of NMR facility managers is scheduled to follow immediately after the conference at the Himalayan Peak Restaurant (at SFU) on Monday from 6 - 9 pm.
For further details see the conference website.
Due to the short time available we have not been able to reserve special accommodation this year but there are links on the website to accommodation at SFU.
Please feel free to forward this announcement to anyone who might be interested.
I hope to see you all here in 2 weeks!
Sincerely,
Andrew
