EUSJA study trips to Germany and plug your books in TSR

For anyone that missed it, I'm posting a couple of items Barbie emailed yesterday:

Plug your book in the next issue of The Science Reporter

If you have a book that has come out in 2009 or will be published by the end of June 2009 we'd like to spread the good news in the members' books section of The Science Reporter. Please send an e-mail to sunny [at] sunnybains.com with full details (title, author, ISBN, publisher, publication date, price, URL) no later than 21 April.

Study trips to Germany

The end of April is the closing date for applications for members to attend a study trip to the 59th meeting of Nobel Laureates in Lindau, Germany (sadly this clashes with the World Conference, taking place 28 June-3 July).

This is the first of a number of EUSJA study trips coming up. You have to pay your own travel but all accommodation and meals will be provided. The meeting this year is dedicated to chemistry and we have a place for one ABSW member to attend. Please send an application to EUSJA secretary, Viola Egikova - violae [at] mail.ru; egikova [at] mospravda.ru by April 30.

The next study trip, again to Germany, is being organised by the Helmholtz Association looking at energy research. This is a five day trip (13-18 September) beginning in Stuttgart and ending in Berlin.

Full details of this will be featured either in The Science Reporter or on the website but if you are certain you would like to be considered please send an email to Barbie Drillsma - absw [at] absw.org.uk
