Hello,

The 53rd Congress of the Indian Society of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (an International Meet) is slated to be held during last week of December 2008, in Hyderabad, India. The last date for sending in both the abstracts and the full-length papers is 30th September, 2008.

People from outside India are especially encouraged to participate. Hyderabad is well connected by flights. Usually, the ISTAM conferences are low on budget but high on enthusiasm. The ISTAM conferences typically cover a broad range of topics.

A symposium on Experimental Multi-Scale Mechanics is being organized for the 2008 SES conference at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign from October 12th through October 15th. The conference website is located at http://ses2008.mechse.uiuc.edu/

To submit abstracts to this symposium please use the abstract submission form and select the symposium title. The deadline for abstract submissions is April 30, 2008.

I've been to two conferences this year and I've again seen the same annoying features in many talks that have been warned against by numerous people over the years.

Here are some tips that might come in handy :
