Program Details and Materials:

• The arrival day in Creswick is Monday 26 June. There are no scheduled seminars on this day. If your flight arrives on Sunday 25 June (or earlier), it is recommended that you stay at a hotel near the airport and catch the Airport Shuttle to Ballarat on Monday 26 June.
• Below is the draft Program Structure. Introductory lectures are 90 minutes, talks in Week 3 (including AMSI/AustMS speakers) are 60 minutes, all other talks are 45 minutes. These times include time for questions. Please click to enlarge.

• In Creswick in July, the average temperatures are 10 degrees Celsius (maximum) and 2 degrees Celsius (minimum) with around 13 days of rain (≥1 millimeter) and a total average monthly rainfall of 79 millimeters. So bring warm, waterproof clothing!
