committee are keen to encourage the participation of research students,
especially those sponsored by EPSRC and BBSRC. To this end, there will be
free registration and accommodation for research council students working
a relevant or related area (subject to fairly generous availability)
and a special Student Poster Session is being organised.

attendance at both events maximally convenient.
