[Spm] Advanced PFM Workshop

[Sergei V. Kalinin]

Dear colleagues

As a reminder, to day is the last day to register for the CNMS User 
meeting and the Advanced PFM workshop. The 2009 annual user meetings for 
CNMS and SHaRE are held jointly on September  16-17, 2009, Wednesday and 
Thursday, at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. 
The annual user meeting combines oral presentations, poster sessions, 
workshops and tutorials into a compact program designed to illuminate 
the frontiers of nanoscience research and acquaint researchers with the 
scientific resources for nanoscience and advanced electron microscopy 
that these two user facilities offer to them. The registration 
information can be found on www.cnms.ornl.gov.
