Subject: Reminder: Southern California Hearing Conference (Sat 9/29/2012, UC Irvine) From: Yi Shen <shen2@xxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 24 Sep 2012 13:53:56 -0400 List-Archive:<http://lists.mcgill.ca/scripts/wa.exe?LIST=AUDITORY>SoCal Hearing Conference The Center for Hearing Research at UC Irvine will host an informal one-day conference intended to enhance communication among Southern California scientists interested in hearing. The date is Saturday, September 29, 2012. All levels of researchers are welcome, students through PI’s, but we particularly encourage presentations from senior students and post-docs. The event will consist of talks, no more than one from each lab, as well as posters from anyone who would like to offer one. The talks will be 15 minutes in length with an additional 5 minutes for questions. We hope that each speaker will briefly introduce the overall scope of his or her lab followed by a brief presentation of his or her own research. If it happens that we receive more volunteers for talks than we can accommodate, we will be back in touch with you to try to trim things down to one or two talks per institution. The posters can be new, but repeats from recent ARO or other meetings also are welcome. We will provide lunch, coffee and snacks throughout the day. We will also organize an optional dinner at a local restaurant, the cost of which will be covered by each diner. Aside from the $10 cost of parking and the cost of the optional dinner, there will be no fee. We do, however, request that you register through the website below so that we know how many participants to expect. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dEkwMXpwaURNQ2ZWbkwwWTB1VWNpaXc6MQ
