Workshop registration

Dear Colleagues

The IPPW-2019 received 270 abstract submissions from over 250 presenting authors, which represents a very large increase compared to previous IPPW events.

However, we are limited to 230 seats at the IPPW-2019 venue, so it was decided to invite registration only from presenting authors of accepted abstracts, and some others who have been specifically invited by the IPPW organising committee (invited speakers, sponsors, session convenors and similar categories). We also ran a waitlist for additional interest but allocated remaining places to individuals in this list in late April. The workshop is now at capacity. For any queries email us at ippw2019-registration@maillist.ox.ac.uk.

Thank you for your understanding and patience.

For those who have already received instructions on how to register, or those booking tours or other options, the registration page can be accessed using this link: https://www.oxforduniversitystores.co.uk/conferences-and-events/physics/events/international-planetary-probe-workshop-2019-ippw2019.
