Dear all,
this, in attachment, is the final program of the SQM school. Please have a look at it.
If you think is ok (that means no complains before Monday 9 AM) we can put it in indico
For the school itself: we got 40 applications and most probably we will accept 39 (still to be confirmed). Adding even some of our PhDs it is pretty sure we will have an attendance between 40-50 students.

Ciao All,
the list of the participants (applicants) for the SQM school is ready. We got 40 applicants for 40 positions so in principle we would have the possibility to accept everyone (assuming we still reserve the same budget, otherwise we can rescale them).
In the list 1 person is in red because he is pretty old and I did not get recommendation letter. We may ask him or decide to remove him immediately.
Now, a non negligible problem is that I did not yet check the number of males and …
[View More]females. Since we have double rooms in the hotel, this can create a small issue (we may need 1 or 2 room more)
I will prepare a shared folder so that the other members of the school commettee can go through the names and letter if the they like. Please double check the names to be sure that are real students of real groups, I already did but I may have missed something
I think we should aim to communicate the support to them in the next couple of weeks so that they can arrange abstracts and travel. The one from the very poor countries may need to know about the support before to send the abstract.

Dear colleagues,
Attached is the second announcement for SQM 2017. Please note that the deadline for abstract submission is extended to 30 March 2017.
Best regards,
Paul Kuijer,
for the local organising committee
Dear Somorendro,
I have discussed you request with the local organising committee. The student support is intended for PhD students and post-docs a few years after their PhD. According to our information you have advanced further than that and your PhD defence was quite long ago. Therefore the waiver of the conference fee is not applicable in your case.
Best regards,
Paul Kuijer for the SQM2017 local organising committee.
