Note

Participation at RaAM events is reserved to RaAM members. This applies equally to presenters, non-attending co-authors, and non-presenting delegates. You need not be a RaAM member at the time when you submit an abstract, but you must join in order to present your work or to attend the seminar.

All delegates attending in person will be required to pay a fee to cover the conference costs (student/retired members are entitled to a reduced fee). We endeavour to keep these as low as possible, since RaAM is a non-profit organisation. We will draw on any surplus to offer some financial assistance to specific groups – please see the ‘Financial support’ tab on the menu.
