PROM Kickoff Meeting
Materials and Process Simulation Center (MSC)
Beckman Institute
Caltech, Pasadena California
July 18-19, 2004, 8 AM
The meeting will take place in Room 115 at Caltech's Beckman
Institute, 400 south Wilson (no numbers are posted, though campus maps
show the BI as building 74).
The building is located south of Del Mar Blvd and north of
California Blvd, at Wilson Ave.
Please be there by 8 am so that we can have a prompt start; it looks
like a very full day couple of days.
There will be a $75 registration fee to cover meal, snack, and drink
costs which can be paid on site.
