  • Talks: Talks of regular participants will be somwhere in the 25-50 minute range depending on participation. (Possibly there may be parallel sessions similar to the AMS meeting style).
  • Confirmation:
    • Please let me know if you would like to participate with a talk by                   November 17.
    • Let me also know if you can attend only certain days or if you intend to give a shorter presentation.
    • Please also drop me a note in case you received and announcement but cannot come to the conference - or wish to attend without giving a talk.

  • Titel & Abstract:  If you do give a talk please also submit at your title and possibly a short abstract through the Atlas Archive.
  • Equipment: All rooms will have overhead projectors and black boards. Please, let me know in advance if you need a room with a video projection system, computer access, laptops, cables, or other special equipment.
  • Students & Recent PhD: [Support no longer available - all student funding has been committed]
