There will be no registration fee or other expenses. We hope you will make plans to attend.. We want to bring together people who care about VIVO to discuss topics of vital interest to the future development of the project. The registration site below has links to a description of the event, and a proposed agenda. We are looking for ideas. Send your ideas for discussion topics to Mike Conlon or Graham Triggs. We will be at the meeting and we hope to see you there. To register, use the link below. The User Group meeting is free and open to all.
