Dear colleagues,

   The AAO's International Telescopes Support Office (ITSO) and 
Astronomy Australia Ltd are pleased to announce that registration is now 
open for the 2017 ITSO Science Symposium, to be held at the Duffield 
Lecture Theatre of the Mt Stromlo Observatory in Canberra from midday 
Tue 16 May through midday Thu 18 May 2017. Following the previous ITSO 
Science symposia in 2012 and 2015, this meeting will feature the 
research being conducted with the international telescopes supported by 
ITSO. The Symposium will feature invited and contributed talks from 
leading Australian users of the Gemini, Magellan, Blanco, and Keck 
telescopes and is open to everyone, not just current users. Students and 
early-career researchers in particular are encouraged to attend, and 
travel subsidies will be available. There will also be opportunities to 
discuss instrumentation, time allocation, and data reduction for these 
facilities. Registration is free, and lunch, a symposium dinner, morning 
and afternoon teas, and transport to/from the ANU campus will be provided.

   The deadline for registration is *Monday 1 May 2017*. For information 
about the venue, accommodation options, a list of registered 
participants, and to register your attendance please visit the symposium 
web page <https://www.aao.gov.au/conference/ITSOsci2017>.  We still have 
some slots available for contributed talks, for which a title and 
abstract should be provided in the registration form.

   We look forward to seeing you in Canberra in mid-May.


Regards,

Stuart Ryder, on behalf of the symposium organising committee (Caroline 
Foster, Elaina Hyde, and Joao Bento)
