-------- Original Message -------- Subject: UK morphometrics meeting, 26 January 2009 Date: Wed, 29 Oct 2008 04:33:21 -0700 (PDT) From: Chris Klingenberg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Organization: University of Manchester To: [email protected] Dear morphometricians On behalf of all the organisers, I am pleased to announce the FIRST UK ONE-DAY MEETING ON MORPHOMETRICS AND STATISTICAL SHAPE ANALYSIS 26 January 2009 Michael Smith Building, Faculty of Life Sciences University of Manchester The UK is privileged in having sizable communities of researchers interested in shape analysis that are partly based in life science departments or medical schools and partly in statistics departments. Yet, there has only been a modest amount of interaction between these communities. The primary aim of the meeting is to bring together the communities of researchers in statistics and the biological and medical sciences who are interested in the analysis of shape. We hope that the meeting will be an opportunity to engage in interactions across disciplines and maybe will stimulate collaborative projects at the interface of statistics and the life sciences. The meeting will feature talks by the following speakers: Adrian Bowman, Department of Statistics, University of Glasgow Peter Hammond, Institute of Child Health, University College London John Kent, Department of Statistics, University of Leeds Huiling Le, School of Mathematical Sciences, University of Nottingham Leandro Monteiro, Department of Biological Sciences, University of Hull Paul O'Higgins, Hull York Medical School In addition, there will be the opportunity for other participants to present posters. At the moment, we think there will no need to limit the number of posters. Accordingly, we anticipate that we can offer the opportunity to exhibit a poster to every participant at the meeting. There will be ample time for viewing posters, as well as for informal discussions among participants.
