The Origin of Life: from Darwin to the metabolome of primordial soup
Thursday, October 22, 2009 from 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM (GMT+1000)
UPDATE 21 OCTOBER - SPILL OVER CONTINGENCY PLAN
We are thrilled to have registrations for tomorrow night's lecture now at full house for the Sunderland theatre.
Fortunately we are able to continue taking registrations because, besides the likelihood of a substantial number of "no shows", we have an excellent spill-over venue arranged.
This is the Wright lecture theatre, two floors up from the Sunderland theatre and fully connected by real-time AV link.
Preferential entry to the "live act" in the Sunderland theatre will be given to those who have registered earlier and obtained EARLYBIRD or REGULAR tickets. Please bring these tickets with you to ensure your place.
For those opting for SPILL OVER? tickets or arriving late, please be assured that the spill over option is still a good experience (its used routinely for high interest events at University of Melbourne and works well). And we are being conservative in saying the main theatre may be full - realistically, it can be expected that a sizeable number of those who registered will not make it on the night.
Any issues, please call us during working hours at 9345 4090.
FREE PUBLIC LECTURE AND DISCUSSION
Welcome to our registration pages.
This event is a public education and outreach initiative of the three host organisations (Proteomics & Metabolomics Victoria, Metabolomics Australia, Melbourne Research Unit for Facial Disorders).
Since seating is limited, we are particularly interested in making Early Bird registrations available to the secondary education sector and related science organisations.
We ask for your contact details so that numbers can be confirmed closer to the event and also to provide updates on venue etc.
We are also interested to learn what part of society you come from and whether you have any prior interest in proteomics and metabolomics.
Please register multiple times if you need more than four seats.
After registering, you will probably receive two emails from Eventbrite - the first is a "ticket" (please retain) and the second an offer to register with their service (unnecessary in this case, but feel free).
For more information please see the PMV website (http://www.pmv.org.au).
Alternatively feel free to phone us during working hours at (03) 9345 4090.
