[ASA] ECR Workshop on "How To Be An Effective Referee" - filling up fast!

[John O'Byrne]

Dear all,

A reminder about the one-day Workshop on "How To Be An Effective Referee"  being organised by the Early Career Researcher Chapter of the Astronomical Society of Australia. It will be held on the 29th November 2013 at the Sydney Institute for Astronomy, University of Sydney, 44-70 Rosehill Street, Redfern.

The aims of the workshop will be to learn and enhance refereeing skills. We intend this event to be very interactive, with attendees working in small groups to practice refereeing example papers and proposals. Because of this, there is a a maximum limit of 40 participants, which we are very close to filling. If you are at all interested in attending, please register as soon as you can. We will hold the names of those who register too late in a reserve list, in case those who have already registered are unable to attend.

This workshop is being sponsored by ARC Centre of Excellence for All-sky Astrophysics (CAASTRO) and the ASA. There is no fee to attend, and coffee and lunch will be provided during the day.

Thanks,

The organising committee,
David Parkinson, James Allison and Daniel Bayliss,
and the interim Steering Committee of the ECR chapter.
