Gordon Conference on Molecular Energy Transfer
Four Points Sheraton Hotel
January 14-19, 2001; Ventura, California
Co-chairs:

Below is the final program for the Gordon Coference. As is customary, the
meeting (which alternates every two years between Europe and the US) will
cover all aspects of energy transfer. Oral sessions will take place in the
morning and in the evening. At the beginning of each session, the session
Chair will give a 20 minute perspective of the field. Each oral
presentation will be 35 minutes, leaving ample time for discussion.
Application forms for the Gordon Conference must be submitted to the GRC
office, University of Rhode Island, P.O. Box 984, West Kingston, RI
02892-0984. Tel. 401 783-4011 (-7644 fax). Early application is encouraged
because the conference has usually close to the maximum allowed number of
attendies. The deadline for registration at a reduced rate is 4 weeks
prior to the conference. Please plan to apply by December 7, 2000. The
deadline for submission of posters December 22, 2000.
