<DIV>Dear all,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>AfSHG 2007 meeting - abstract notification</STRONG></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The date for notification of abstract acceptance for the next annual meeting has been put back slightly, as the abstract submission deadline was extended earlier this summer and hope that this does not cause any inconvenience.</DIV>
<DIV>We aim to send out the notification by 22nd September 2007.</DIV>
<DIV>Please inform anyone who may have submitted an abstract but is not currently on the AfSHG mailing list.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>

<DIV><STRONG>AfSHG Young Investigators Prize</STRONG></DIV>

<DIV>Thank you to those who have indicated their intention to participate in the Prize competition.</DIV>
<DIV>Could I remind everyone that this Prize is only open to young investigators (see rules <A href="http://www.afshg.org/2007_prize_info.html">http://www.afshg.org/2007_prize_info.html</A>) and that we will need the following from participants:</DIV>
<DIV> (i) a short Curriculum vitae (no more than two A4 pages including publication list) and </DIV>
<DIV> (ii) a letter of recommendation by their supervisor or line manager</DIV>
<DIV>If you or your supervisor/line manager have not supplied these documents to date then please send these directly to myself. I would be grateful if you could clearly state your full name and title of abstract when sending your CV and recommendation.</DIV>
<DIV>Should there be any questions please do not hesitate to ask.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Best wishes,</DIV>
