Annual
Scientific Meeting 2002
Society for
Reproductive Biology and the Endocrine
Society of Australia 2225 September 2002
These meetings
will be held at the newly extended Adelaide Convention Centre in
downtown Adelaide. Our former Premier and Tourism Minister opened
it just a few weeks ago. The centre is really excellent.
Mike Pickford
is the conference organiser again this year, and our local organising
committee consists of Tony Roberts, Jeremy Thompson, Hamish Eaton,
Wendy Ingman, Rob Gilchrist and myself. The program Chairs Leon
Bach and Kate Loveland will also contribute to the planning of the
local events.
The University
Games will be held in Adelaide the same week as our meetings. Since
a large number of students will attend these games budget accommodation
may be tight, and we are moving quickly to ensure that we reserve
some for ourselves.
The accommodation
costs should be lower than last year and certainly lower than in
the other major capital cities. Of course travel to Adelaide is
always convenient and cheap, and the venue is only 15 minutes from
the airport, as is everything else in Adelaide. The registration
fee, however, may be slightly higher this year.
We have set
ourselves some goals. One is to work more closely with the Australian
Diabetes Society and the Australian Diabetes Educators Association.
They are using the same conference organiser as us.
We are looking
forward to seeing you in Adelaide.
Convenor
Ray Rodgers
