Conference Programme

Hello everyone,

We're now only 2 weeks from NZCSRSC09! We're getting the last details ironed out and have now got the programme sorted. You can see it on our Web site - go to https://nzcsrsc09.auckland.ac.nz/programme to see everything we have planned!

We're still finalising room bookings for some of the events, so these aren't available yet, but rest assured you'll get a complete programme (with maps) when you arrive. Also please note that times for specific events are subject to change, although we'll be trying our best to keep things running on time.

If you have any questions, please email me (jdow038@aucklanduni.ac.nz).

We look forward to seeing you in a couple of weeks' time!

Cheers


John Downs
