All Southern California Practitioners of NMR,
For the past few years Deniz Cizmeciyan has organized an occasional
Saturday gathering for presentations on various topics in NMR. This
gathering enjoys the moniker "LAME" for "LA Area Magnet Experts."
Participants and attendees gather mid-morning, have a few talks before
lunch is provided, share a few more talks, and finish by mid-afternoon.
After ably organizing several meetings, Deniz has handed me the reins to
arrange the next LAME conference. In an attempt to beat the mark of
one-year since our last gathering, I have chosen the date of January 30th.
(This is the day before the Super Bowl.) I don't know of any important
scientific conflicts, but if there are any please let me know. (The one
possible exception is that anyone attending the 20th Danish NMR Meeting,
Soroe Storkro, Denmark, will probably miss our gathering.)
My intent is to hold the meeting here at Isis Pharmaceuticals in Carlsbad,
California. We have spacious seminar facilities which should be more than
adequate for the occasion. This is more southerly than previous events,
but makes a much shorter commute for UCSD, Scripps and other San Diego
magnet jocks. Perhaps we will return northward in future meetings. We
have been offered the generous support of CIL, Varian, and Nalorac for this
event.
If you are interested in participating either as a speaker or an attendee,
please contact me at pwheeler@isisph.com. An exact schedule is not set
yet. This is an excellent opportunity to speak to an inquisitive,
knowledgeable audience in an informal setting. There is no fee for
participation.
Please pass this message on to anyone else who would be interested.
Yours,
Patrick Wheeler
