The Workshop will begin with a continental breakfast on Friday, May 19, and end at 2:00 pm on Sunday, May 21. The program will include 25-minute invited talks, poster presentations, and time for informal discussion. The invited talks will be given by a few researchers from outside the Network and by representatives of research groups within the Network. Anyone associated with the Network can contribute a poster presentation, which will include a brief, oral introduction.
A block of rooms has been reserved for Workshop participants at the Hilton Hotel/Fairfield Inn, located at the intersection of University and Menaul Boulevards (map and instructions). The Hilton/Fairfield does not offer transportation from and to Albuquerque International Sunport.
