Short Announcement for APES’04 & ISEPR-APES’04

Dear Colleagues,

It is my pleasure to inform you that the dates for the two related meetings being organized by the Asia-Pacific EPR/ESR Society and the respective Local Organizing Committees (LOC’s) together with local institutions, which were postponed due to SARS earlier this year, have now been fixed.

1. The Asia-Pacific EPR/ESR Symposium 2004 (APES’04) will to be held from November 22 to November 25, 2004, at the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, India.

Following the tradition of previous APE Symposia held in Hong Kong (1997), Hangzhou (1999), and Kobe (2001), APES’04 aims to cover all sub-areas of EPR/ESR and is open to participants not only from the countries in the Asia-Pacific region but also from all over the world.

2. International School on EPR Spectroscopy and Free Radical Research (ISEPR-APES’04) will be held as a Satellite meeting prior to the APES’04 during November 17 to November 20, 2004, at Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, Mumbai.

The School is aimed at young researchers and the number of places is limited. Experts in various areas of EPR will give several lectures on pertinent topics.

A combined First Announcement has recently been distributed electronically. For more information please visit the APES website: http://www.ied.edu.hk/has/phys/apepr/ or inquire with the respective Chairman of the LOC.
