The International Coordinating Committee for the MG Meetings helps
gather input for the planning of the scientific program and facilitates
the attendance of participants from each nation where work in this broad
field of science is done.
Coordination of travel funding requests from
the participants’ country of origin or making the local organizing
committee aware of visa requirements appropriate to a given country are
two country specific activities that members of this committee should
handle. In countries with multiple members, these latter activities
if necessary would of course be shared. In the USA for example, NSF travel
fund application will be arranged through mutual agreement with the
International Organizing Committee and a volunteer. It is also important
for ICC members to let us know how we can help the scientists of their
country in attending the meeting.
In general for most ICC members, participation in this committee amounts
to an organized way for us to gather input from you for scientific program
suggestions via email.
The three key pieces of information we need to function are:
- Your full name, with some indication of your last name(s) and
first names, which can be confusing with multiple traditions for multiple
last names (South America: Brazil versus the rest in forming multiple last
names and hyphenating them or not) or Asian names where name order is
reversed. Here is a way of making clear the distinction
FullLastNames, FullFirstNamesPlusInitials:
Jantzen, Robert T.
Fang, Li-Zhi
Bersaglia-Perez, Santiago
Perez Luna, Elizabetta
Note: with your full name, if you have a presence on the internet, we can
find you with a search tool even if years pass between meetings and your
email address changes. [To make the author index to the MG Proceedings, this
ambiguity in the normal name order is a nightmare.]
- Your current email address:
robert.jantzen@villanova.edu
- Your complete mailing address which is necessary for us to send
you about 4 meeting posters when they are made for local distribution in
your country or local area in your country or perhaps your university,
depending on the circumstances:
