ATNF Marsfield Lecture Theatre

The annual ATNF student symposium is being held in at ATNF Headquarters, Sydney.

The symposium began is designed to allow higher degree students the opportunity to present their research to fellow students and staff. All are welcome to attend.

The idea of the symposium is to provide an informal atmosphere where ATNF affiliated students can present their work and allow ATNF staff and visitors to be informed of current research. There are a number of ways students can present their work:

- A thesis outline (for people commencing in 2003);
- discussion of global results;
- discussion of an interesting specific result;
- present a problem encountered in your research and initiate a discussion with the audience.

Attendance is open to all students, staff and visitors of ATNF. Students are invited to submit a short abstract for a 15-20min talk. All students are strongly encouraged to utilise this opportunity to obtain feedback on their research and it is expected by the ATNF that students will attend. It is important to note that these are not formal talks, but rather an opportunity for students to gain experience at public speaking and to provide staff the opportunity to see some of the excellent research being under taken by ATNF students.

Interstate students are particularly encouraged to present their work and teleconference facilities will be available for those that can not present in person.
