[DMANET] Groups St Andrews: Deadline extended

Dear Colleagues

The final deadline for booking university accommodation at Groups St Andrews has been extended to 5pm (BST) this WEDNESDAY, 17TH JULY. It will still be possible to register after that, but accommodation options in town may be very limited.

We have also extended the deadline for submitting an abstract for a contributed talk to this FRIDAY, 19TH JULY.

The conference website is here: http://www.groupsstandrews.org/2013/index.shtml

Further details about the conference are at the end of this message.

Best wishes
