123 == Call for Abstracts ==
124 Flier: [[File(nsrs_poster_09.pdf)]]. Please email a short abstract (150 words) to ncn.slc.amrit@gmail.com or to aeislam@purdue.edu. Only electronic versions in MS Word or pdf formats shall be considered. The deadline for abstract submission is 11:59 PM CST on '''Wednesday, June 10, 2009'''. '''Please note that the abstract is for the presentation only and a full length paper is NOT required.''' There will be a total of 20 presentations, evenly divided between the two sessions. A computer with MS Powerpoint and projector shall be provided. The accepted presenters shall be notified by June 12, 2009 and they are highly encouraged to email a copy of the Powerpoint slides for their presentations by June 15, 2009 to avoid delays on the day of the symposium. Each speaker shall be provided a maximum of 15 mins for their presentation and question/ answer session. We recommend 11 mins of presentation and 4 mins of Q/A, but this distribution is solely at the speaker's discretion.
125
126 == Call for Posters ==
127 All students who will exhibit posters to the NCN Site Visit Team on June 17 are recommended to also participate in the Poster Session on Jun 16, which will act as a dry run for their posters. Other students are invited to exhibit posters showcasing their research. You can bring the posters along with you on Jun 16. We will have a stand and board ready for you. However, you need to RSVP to ncn.slc.amrit@gmail.com by 11:59 PM CST on '''Friday, June 12, 2009''' that you wish to exhibit a poster at the symposium. '''Here is the template for the poster:''' [[File(2009_ncn_poster_template_landscape.ppt)]].
