Invitation:

You are invited to attend the 11^th Annual Meeting of the Pacific Center for Advanced Materials and Microstructures (PCAMM) at 天美mv天美.  This event brings together materials researchers from all over BC and beyond to present their research results and hear about new developments in materials and device research in BC.
 
The event will be held at 天美mv天美 on Saturday December 9, 2006 in the IRMACS Center.  Lunch will be provided.  The event is free of charge, but attendees are requested to pre-register by emailing Simon Watkins (simonw@sfu.ca)

The format will be somewhat different from previous meetings in that there will be more focus on facilitating interactions through expanded poster sessions.

Financial travel assistance will be available for students from Victoria.

Directions to meeting rooms (IRMACS facility):  

Instructions to presenters:

Common projection technologies will be available. We prefer that oral presenters use their own laptops.
Poster presenters are requested to have their poster in place before the start of the first poster session and to keep it there until the end of the day.
There are no assigned spaces for poster placement.

Parking:      Parking in  B-lot will  be free for the entire event.  To reach  B-lot, follow the directions in the above link, but follow the signs for B-lot, rather than the "visitor parking"  circled on the IRMACs link.  B-lot is the large lot on the left hand side just before the visitors lot.
