Abstract submissions for Autumn MIST are now open

Autumn MIST will be held at the Royal Astronomical Society, Burlington House, London, on Friday 24 November 2017. The meeting will start at 10:30 am and will include a poster session and oral sessions.

Contributions are welcome from all areas of MIST science, but the first session will be themed "The grand finale and the new beginning: Results from Cassini and Juno", and Professor Emma Bunce will be giving an invited talk on this topic to start the day. Therefore, abstracts on this theme are particularly welcome. Those wishing to present at the meeting should submit an abstract by completing the abstract submission form before before the end of Monday 30 October.

If you have any problems with submitting your abstract or questions about the process, This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. The programme will be confirmed and notifications sent to authors by Friday 3 November.

As with last year, the RAS will be charging us for refreshments, and it will be necessary to charge a registration fee of £10 (£5 for students). We will provide receipts, to allow you to claim with the rest of your travel expenses, but please make sure you bring the registration fee in cash on the day.

Although the meeting will start at 10:30, we will have access to the Council Room from 10am. Teas and coffees will be provided from 10:00 - 10:30 and during the poster session.
