A great venue would not be worth much without a great conference. Under the leadership of Leo G. Visser, of the Netherlands, and the co-chair, Christina Greenaway, from nearby Montreal, the Scientific Program Committee is putting together an up-to-date and broad-ranging program that no one will want to miss. We should remember that many of the talks at a conference like this present information that is not available in journals. They represent expert summaries of new information, or comprehensive reviews of the history of a current problem. That’s one of the main reasons it is important to make the effort to attend these meetings.
