2005 Goldschmidt Conference

CALL FOR PROPOSALS FOR SYMPOSIA
FOR GOLDSCHMIDT 2005

 Proposals for symposia/special sessions for the 2005 Goldschmidt Meeting in Moscow, Idaho, U.S.A. are now being soliciting. A number of broad themes for the meeting has been identified and an International Program Committee (IPC) has been appointed (see the website http://www.uidaho.edu/gold2005 for details). The IPC consists of a chairperson (Peter Larson; plarson@wsu.edu) and at least two international representatives for each theme. The IPC will evaluate each proposed symposium to minimize overlap and insure broad coverage of the themes. To propose a symposium, please contact either the IPC Chair or one of the appropriate thematic representatives (again, see the conference website for contact information). The proposal can be as simple as an e-mail giving the title of the proposed symposium, a brief statement of the relevance and expected interest level, and the names of potential organizers/session chairs of the symposium (who will solicit papers from appropriate contributors). We will entertain proposals even if they do not appear to fit under any of the highlighted themes. Proposals for symposia/special sessions will be accepted for consideration up until September 1, 2004. However, submission of proposals as soon as possible is advised.
