Program Application:
If you plan to attend a tutorial/workshop, we ask that you
please register online using the Application Forms link. Online
registration will be closed a few days prior to the workshop but you may still register in person at the workshop (usually
in 3-176 Kenneth H.
Keller Hall). Your registration is important for a variety of reasons, including
the directory of participants which will be distributed when the workshop is
over.
Name tags: Please
wear your name tag during workshops. If you have misplaced your nametag, please
ask the staff to make you a new one.
Lecture Notes/Material from
Talks: If you are a speaker, please email your presentation materials
to or bring printed material to 409 Lind Hall for scanning.
Whenever possible we post talk materials to the IMA web page. We can duplicate
directly from transparencies, however, we prefer an electronic version or a paper
copy. Material from IMA Talks can be found at http://www.ima.umn.edu/talks/.
Poster Session/Dimension:
We plan to have a poster session in every workshop.
Given our diverse interdisciplinary audience,
the poster session provides a valuable

in-depth technical discussion and networking with researchers
new to your field.

encouraged to present a poster.
