The next ATUC meeting is to be held at the ATNF headquarters in Marsfield on the 24th and 25th November, 2015. The programme will be posted on the ATUC web pages a week or two before the meeting. On the morning of the 24th, an Open Session will be held that consists of reports and updates on the various aspects of ATNF operations. All users are welcome to attend the Open Session which usually runs until mid afternoon. An agenda for the Open Session will be made available on the ATUC web page. On the afternoon and on the 25th, ATUC hold a Closed Session, during which a report to the ATNF Director is drafted. If you, as a user (or potential user) of the ATNF, are aware of any issues that need to be raised at the next ATUC meeting, or would like to offer praise or feedback on ATNF activities, please contact any member of ATUC over the next few weeks. Information on ATUC and how to contact its members can be found at: http://www.atnf.csiro.au/management/atuc Regards, Jo Dawson (for) Virginia Kilborn ATUC Chair -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Registration closes this Friday 13th November 2015. This year talks will be in a new format: 3 minutes (+2 for Q&A) and must be presented on a single slide. The motivation behind this change is to encourage people to pitch their research with a single, "big picture" message, and hope that those attending will see the fantastic range of research being carried out with Australia's world class telescopes. We expect the whole meeting will take less than a day, with opportunity for conversations over breaks and a lunch. We welcome all members (students, post-docs and staff) of the astronomical research community to submit talks and attend the meeting.
