As is normal, the program for Singapore has now been reworked somewhat to eliminate discrepancies, persons who have withdrawn etc. The revised program will be posted very shortly.
Please keep checking the web.
Travel grants: We have more or less exhausted our grant monies at this time. However, we have NOT received acceptances from everyone. We have requested such acceptances and will be shortly reassigning funds from those who have not responded.When someone drops out --as has happened already--the money is reassigned to persons on our reserve list. Therefore, if you have received a grant but know that you will not be able to come to Singapore, please let us know ASAP. We will also email everyone in due course to request a formal acceptance or rejection.
Finally, please use the Chat Room for any valuable discussions you want to start.
ONSITE REGISTRATION
