Located in Lorraine in northeast France, the city of Nancy is known all over the world thanks to Place Stanislas, a magnificent example of classical French architecture. It is considered the most beautiful royal square in Europe and the high point of Nancy's outstanding collection of 18th century monuments and is listed on UNESCO's World Heritage List. Nancy is also a prestigious center of art and architecture, mainly in response to the work of the "Ecole de Nancy", a group of artists and architects that worked in the Art Nouveau style at the end of the 19th century and the early 20th century. To be immersed in this historical atmosphere, the meeting will be held in the city center, within walking distance of hotels and the railway station. Visit the Nancy tourist office <http://www.ot-nancy.fr/> for more information. Plenary, oral, and poster sessions will be held in two amphitheaters of the Faculty of Law on the Place Carnot near (~300 m) Place Stanislas in the center of the city, which will also provide the primary accommodations for meeting attendees. Scheduled events include a reception during the registration, a banquet, an award ceremony, and several excursions. A pre-conference workshop will be held in Nancy the weekend before the meeting. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ CONTACTS ------------------------------------------------------------------------ For further information regarding the format and scientific objectives of the meeting, contact Isabelle Geoffroy, Meeting Secretariat CRPG-CNRS Nancy Université B.P. 20 54501 Vandoeuvre lès Nancy Cedex, France Phone : +33 3 83 59 42 14 Fax : +33 3 83 51 17 98 E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Conference Organizers Marc Chaussidon [EMAIL PROTECTED] Guy Libourel [EMAIL PROTECTED] Bernard Marty [EMAIL PROTECTED] For further information regarding meeting logistics and announcements, please contact Kimberly Taylor Lunar and Planetary Institute phone: 281-486-2151 e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SCHEDULE ------------------------------------------------------------------------ March 5, 2009 Deadline for Indication of Intent forms and second announcement posted on this website April 28, 2009 Deadline for abstract submission May 28, 2009 Final announcement with program and abstracts posted on this website June 5, 2009 Deadline for registration at reduced rate July 10-13, 2009 Pre-conference field trip to Rochechouart Crater and Bordeaux wineries July 11-13, 2009 Pre-conference workshop on "Experimentation in Cosmochemistry: From Nebulae to Planets" July 13-18, 2009 72nd Annual Meeting of the Meteoritical Society ______________________________________________ http://www.meteoritecentral.com Meteorite-list mailing list [email protected] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
