List of Posters (with links to abstracts)
Monday features reports from Washington and facility updates, as well as forward-looking keynote talks in the afternoon. The poster session is Monday afternoon. There will be a special opportunity during the poster session to discuss upgrade issues with the upgrade theme leaders, followed by a "town hall" on Tuesday for raising issues with the APS Users Organization. On Tuesday, at a banquet honoring the 20th anniversary of the APS groundbreaking, we'll showcase our very own “Field of Dreams” and those who believed that “if you build it, they will come." There's a new student-oriented feature this year: a talk on post-doc opportunities at Argonne, which will also touch on post-doc job searches generally.
4/30/10 — Monday AM: Pedro Montano replaces Harriet Kung
4/23/10 — Monday AM: Douglas Platz replaces Bill Foster, times adjusted
