In this mailing we present a call for submission of abstracts, details of the conference registration, and include a preliminary scientific program. So far we have received well over 300 pre-registration forms, most of which contained preliminary titles of conference contributions. You can use the on-line registration system , but must mail or transfer payment for fees by April 30. If you use the on-line registration you do not need to send a copy of the registration form.
Abstract forms are available in various formats.

These oral contributions will be allotted 20 minutes, including discussion. The speakers will be notified of their selection near the end of April. A poster session will be scheduled for those contributions unable to be scheduled as oral presentations.
