As usual, our forthcoming 2-day Technical Meeting will be webcast live, and webcast delegates will also be able to access a video recording of the Webcast straight after the end of the meeting. Day 1 of the Webcast (Tuesday 24th March) will start at 9.45am, and will close at 17.00. Day 2 (Wednesday 25th March) will start at 9.30am and will close at or before 16.45.

This meeting will disseminate the results of recent research projects, including the SAFEN Phase 2, HICON, SH2IFT-2, ELVHYS JIPs and more. A provisional programme comprising the confirmed presentations is provided below. The final schedule will be confirmed shortly.
