** Some of the people on this list have
already completed the registration procedure by submitting the
online registration form, an abstract and the meeting fee - others have
registered but have yet to complete procedure in its entirely. Just as
names will be added to this list as other researchers sign up,
so will some be removed as they change their mind and ultimately decide against travelling to
meeting. If the participation of individual researchers
who are known to you is critical to helping you do decide about
your own participation, then please return to this list
regularly to check for changes and updates.
