CIUS Autumn Conference 2019

CIUS Autumn Conference 2019

We are pleased to announce that the CIUS Autumn Conference 2019 will be arranged in Horten on 26 and 27 November. The venue is the traditional Sjømilitære Samfund on Karljohansvern. A block of rooms has been reserved for the participants, some inside Sjømilitære Samfund, the rest in a nearby hotel. The conference starts with lunch at 12.00 on Tuesday 26 November, and will finish by 16.00 on Wednesday, 27 November.

Horten is home of several CIUS industry partners and of the USN transducer lab. This gives us opportunity to show how devices are made in real life, and company visits will be organized as part of the conference. For the technical program, we are especially pleased to welcome prof. Nico de Jong from TU Delft to talk about sophisticated new transducer designs. We also expect the first PhD-candidates to have defended their theses by this time, and hope to be able to honor them during the conference.

Apart from this, the program will follow the successful recipe of the previous CIUS-meetings, with presentations by CIUS partners and invited guest speakers, speed updates from CIUS researchers, and updates from the CIUS administration.
