APEBHC 2014 CONFERENCE PROGRAMME

Please note that the Conference Program is to be used as a guide only and is currently in a draft form. A printable version can be found here.

We have done our best to accommodate those requirements regarding time of presentation of which we were notified, and also to distribute the sessions so as to avoid obvious clashes of interest. Likewise, we have done our best to make coherent sessions.  We apologise in advance if anyone is disappointed by the scheduling, and if we have scheduled any paper at a time which is unsuitable for the presenters, please let us know as soon as possible.
