As you can see the main parts of the meeting are situated on the Tuesday PM and Wednesday AM. As discussed in previous meetings we have allocated some/more time at the edges for more intensive, joint activities like paper writing,data analysis etc. There are four session types: plenary, parallel sessions where people present their work (and discussion), handson practical sessions and really open brainstorm sessions (data analysis, joint bids). The form has an open text box ‘Your contribution(s)’ where we ask you to fill in what you can and/or would like to contribute (this may be more than one item). Please see this as truly open: if you have a ‘wild’ idea, let us know and we will try to accommodate it.
More information on logistical and content matters will follow soon. For now, we have an airport in Southampton, FlyBe is housed there. The hotel nearest to the campus is Highfield House Hotel. In the meantime, if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
With kind regards and looking forward to seeing you in Southampton, if you have any questions or suggestions please let us know!
