Upcoming Events in Victoria

This Symposium is a satellite meeting of OzBio 2010 and is sponsored by CSIRO and the Australian Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology.

The 18th International Symposium on Surfactants in Solution (SIS2010) will be held in Melbourne, Victoria, on 14–19 November 2010. The conference includes the Kash Mittal Award Lecture, as well as a Special Symposium – 'Surfactant Science & Technology: Retrospects and Prospects'.

The 1st International One Health Congress will focus on the disease risks and challenges brought about by the interactions between animals, humans and the environment.

An inaugural 'Electrospinning' Conference, offered by CSIRO Materials Science and Engineering, enables scientists and engineers to engage in cross disciplinary discussions and interactions on applications for electrospun nanofibres.

The Seventh International Conference on Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) in the Minerals and Process Industries (CFD2009) is the premier event for the industry.

Researchers, animal health managers and policy makers are invited to come together to discuss the latest developments in foot and mouth disease (FMD) research, diagnostics and control measures during this three-day event.

CSIRO's Australian Animal Health Laboratory (AAHL), in conjunction with Gordon Institute of TAFE, presents a five-day course in Bio-Risk Management at AAHL in Geelong, Victoria.

This course deals with the critical logistics supply chain issues and why companies find a supply chain perspective important to improving their competitive position in the marketplace.

This course, approved by the Australian Quarantine Inspection Service, will provide participants with necessary skills to design a safe and commercially viable thermal schedule for the processing of low-acid food products in cans, pouches and other hermetically sealed packaging.

The CSIRO Science Education Centre runs a range of great weekend and after-school programs for kids of all ages. Even adults are allowed to join some events!
