BCA Spring Meeting 2010

The Spring Meeting of the British Crystallographic Association will be held at Warwick from 12th - 15th April 2010.

Data Matters

The 2010 Spring Meeting will have a theme of "Data Matters". It will be held at the University of Warwick between 12th and 15th April 2010. The broad ranging theme encompasses many aspects of a crystallographic study and allows scope for many interdisciplinary sessions.

As usual there will be a Young Crystallographers Meeting on Monday 12th April continuing on the Tuesday morning, before the main part of the meeting.

The Programme Chair for the meeting is Dr Simon Coles, from the University of Southampton. The Programme Committee will be meeting at Warwick on July 15th to agree the format of the sessions and session topics. We hope that the Programme will include everything from collecting and processing data, to high-throughput analysis, data mining, informatics and complementary studies.

Please feel free to contact Simon in advance of this meeting for suggestions around sessions and speakers or any novel ideas for the conference in general.

The full Programme Committee members are Elspeth Garman (President); Sandy Blake (Vice President); Harry Powell (Treasurer); David Massey (Northern Networking); Vilmos Fulop & Neil Isaacs (BSG); Ross Harrington & Hazel Sparkes (CCG); Martin Gill & Matthew Johnson (IG); Sarah Lister & Andrew Wills (PCG); Graham Findlay & Helena Shepherd (YCG) and Arwen Pearson (2011 Programme Chair).
