Scientific Program - Thursday
The main conference sessions will be held in the Mason
Theatre within building E7B at Macquarie University. Registration,
morning and afternoon tea and coffee, and poster sessions will be in
the Courtyard in the same building. A large campus map showing the
location of building E7B is available
here.
All speakers are required to set up their talks during
the break prior to their presentation so that we can test each
presentation and ensure there are no problems. Student talks are
marked with an asterisk.
