Annual Meeting 2006Year 2
The second Annual Meeting of EURON II was held on Saturday 18 March 2006 in Palermo on Sicily, directly after the first EUROS symposium. About 160 people attended. The reviewers had been quite critical at the end of year one (although four of the five have since joined EURON), so many changes have been made and some are still ongoing. The reports had interesting and significant content, the food was excellent, the breaks were long enough to have proper conversations in, the afternoon sessions gave the opportunity for focussed discussion — in short, the meeting was an excellent opportunity to Network.
Congratulations to this year's winners
of the fifth
Georges Giralt PhD Award and the third
Technology Transfer Award. The agenda has several of the reports attached. "A thousand thanks" to Antonio Chella and his team.

Getting InvolvedWe hope that you will get involved in many of EURON's activities and encourage others to do so as well. Attend MeetingsAttending meetings is an excellent way of making contacts and friends within the community. These contacts are normally interesting, and may also be useful! EURON Schools are aimed at PhD students so are particularly good for people wishing to deepen an already existing interest.
