MICE Collaboration Meeting 27

7 Jul 2010, 08:00 → 10 Jul 2010, 18:00 Europe/London

Conference rooms 12 and 13 (RAL)

IMPORTANT:  Due to a problem beyond MICE’s control, the block room reservations at Ridgeway House are not valid for CM27.  Anyone who has booked at Ridgeway House using reference 60661 will instead be accommodated in building R70.  Unfortunately, there are no rooms available at Ridgeway House.

All accommodation booked until 25/06/10 will be confirmed by e-mail on 26/06/10.  If you have booked accommodation, but have not received this e-mail, please contact Rose Hayes for more information.

The accommodation booking deadline has now passed.  Please arrange your own accommodation if necessary.

                                                          

MICE Collaboration Meeting 27 (CM27) will be held at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory on the 7th -- 10th July 2010.

Registration for CM27 is now CLOSED.  The registration fee will be £45 plus £45 (+ £22.50/guest) for the collaboration dinner and entertainment. 

An agenda is viewable on the agenda page.
