[ASA] 2018 ASA Annual Science Meeting @Swinburne Program Announced

[Darren Croton]

A final follow-up.

The notifications should have gone out now. We had a lot of abstracts submitted (around 250!) for about 150 talk spots. The goal was to balance scientific discipline with interest while maintaining gender and geographical diversity. If you were unsuccessful in getting a talk (and sorry if so) we allocated you a poster.

If you need to update any details please email me and CC Katinka Gereb (kgereb at swin.edu.au<mailto:kgereb at swin.edu.au>) and we’ll get you sorted.

We’re looking forward to an exciting meeting!

Thanks,
Darren

Hi everyone. A quick follow-up.

It looks like the system is taking its time to send talk/poster notifications, and so maybe i shouldn’t have been so quick to ask you to email if one hadn’t arrived.

These should come. Regardless, the program online is accurate.

Thanks,
Darren

Dear ASA member.

On behalf of the SOC, it’s with great pleasure that i’d like to announce the program for this year's ASA Annual Science Meeting, which is now live at the conference webpage.

https://asa2018.swin.edu.au/asa2018/program/

In particular, new to this year are community led “special sessions”, which include:

ESO
A focus on big data and computing (ADACS)
Exoplanets & galactic structure in the TESS era
Massively multiplexed spectroscopic surveys
SKA precursor science with ASKAP and MWA
GALAH, Gaia and the Galaxy
The future of Australian optical astronomy
Multi-messenger astronomy

We also have a number of social and community activities planned. Those who submitted abstracts for talks/posters should have been notified by now (if not, please contact me).

We’re looking forward to seeing you at Swinburne in late-June!

Thanks,
Darren (SOC Chair)
