Thank you to the participants who attended the Microwave Workshop!
In the next few days we will be setting up a website for you to access that will allow you to get to the files that your collected during the workshop including the handouts and presentations. We will be sending out and posting the link as soon as it is ready.
We would also like to thank the vendors for their support and participation, especially PerkinElmer, Mager Scientific and Ted Pella, Inc.!
The National Academies Keck Futures Initiative (NAKFI), a project of the National Academy of Sciences, the National Academy of Engineering, and the Institute of Medicine, with generous support from the W.M. Keck Foundation, is seeking candidates to apply for this year's conference on Imaging Science.
NAKFI conferences bring together some of the nation's best and brightest researchers from academic, industrial, and government laboratories to explore and discover interdisciplinary connections in important areas of cutting-edge research. Maybe you're interested in applying, or know somebody who would like to become part of what many have called a "spectactular and intellectually-stimulating" experience.
This year's conference will be held November 17-19, 2010 at the Arnold and Mabel Beckman Center in Irvine, California, beginning ith a welcome reception the evening of November 16. Additional information about the conference, including the online application, is available at: http://www.keckfutures.org/conferences/imaging-science.html.
The NAKFI Steering Committee on Imaging Science will review all applications and select approximately 100 attendees. Following the conference, nearly $1 million in seed grant monies will be available to participants on a competetive basis in the amounts of $25,000, $50,000, $75,000 and $100,000. The National Academies Keck Futures Initiative will pay for all expenses related to participants' travel to and from the conference, and meals and lodging during the conference.
Please take a few moments to complete the application if you're interested in this year's conference, or forward this email to a colleague who might be interested. Thank you in advance for your support of the National Academies Keck Futures Initiative!
