Apologies for an error on the recent ATUC meeting announcement.

The science meeting preceding the ATUC open meeting is actually entitled "Science Drivers for Parkes Receiver Development"

The next ATUC meeting will be held 30-31 October 2012 at the ATNF headquarters in Marsfield, and will be proceeded by an ATUC Science Meeting entitled “Time Domain Astronomy” on 29 October (see below for more details).

Videocon facilities will be available. An agenda for the Open Session will be made available on the ATUC web page closer to the meeting. In the afternoon of the 30th and on the 31st October, ATUC will hold a closed session, during which a report to the ATNF Director is drafted.
