Thursday 1 July
Contributed talks have been timetabled in alphabetical order within sessions. The deliberate exceptions are sessions A1 and D1. Registration will be in room HU 317, while refreshments will be served in HU 324. Both those rooms are off the corridor that leads to HU LT 323, the lecture theatre which will be used for the Welcome and Plenary Session, one of the parallel sessions throughout the day, and the Closing Session plus NZSA Annual General Meeting.
Note, the timetable also has a brief outline of the day's events.
