Workshop on Colossal
Magnetoresistive Manganites and Related Transition metal Oxides
Telluride, CO June 28, July 3,
2004
All the talks will
take place at
The workshop format is designed to provide for intensive
discussion of each presentation as well as for general topical discussions.
There will be morning sessions with 30 minute slots for speakers (15-20 min
presentation followed by 10-15 min of discussion) followed by free afternoons
and ad hoc evening discussion periods. Our experience from the 1998, 2000 and the 2002 CMR workshops
demonstrated that this approach was not only highly effective but extremely
well-received by all participants. Likewise, the environment in Telluride
fostered substantive discussions during afternoon hiking expeditions.
When preparing your
talk please consider the following guidelines:
1) The time allocated for each talk is 30 minutes. The
actual presentation should last 15-20 min, this will allow 10-15 min for
discussion. Do not attempt to stuff a 40
minute talk into 30 minutes slot.
2) In the spirit of the workshop avoid slides that are
overly technical or show too much detail. The idea is to promote discussions
about the main unresolved issues and about the themes that are “common” among
different transition metal oxides.
3) At the end of the talk show a slide that summarizes what
is unknown and what are the challenges for the future. Are there common themes
with other oxides? Does your work address one of the questions raised in the 2002 workshop?
