Welcome

Dear Colleagues,

The 33rd CRS Annual Meeting & Exposition will be held in Vienna, Austria, 22-26 July 2006. An innovative and exciting scientific line up has been planned by the Programme Chairs that includes multiple plenary speakers, over 40 invited speakers, 5 mini-symposia, and more than 30 scientific sessions. The highly successful Young Scientist Sessions, Pearls of Wisdom Sessions, Educational Workshops, Releasing Technologies, Soapbox Sessions, and Industrial Session will all be included in the Vienna programme. In this historic location and wonderful venue, the CRS Vienna meeting will be the one to attend in 2006. Important dates for your diaries are when abstract submission begins on 1 November and concludes on 31 January. I encourage you to submit your abstracts and contribute to making this meeting the best ever for the CRS!

Best Regards,
Martyn C. Davies
