Chairperson's Corner
Ramanathan Narayanan (Nara)
The Annual Meeting in Québec City (May 13-16, 2007) was a great success for the Processing Division and we are already working hard for a great session in Seattle, WA (May 18-21, 2008).
Processing Division will have three sessions on Processing Technologies, an Exhibitor session, a Poster session and a General Processing session.
We are also planning a Hot Topic session (sponsored by Processing Division and IOMSA) on Tuesday morning.
More details on these sessions will be available in the next few months. If you have any specific topics you would like to be included, please contact me or one of the division officers.
Processing Division will have a Hospitality Suite open for networking and exchange of ideas within its members. In 2008, the suite will be open on Monday & Tuesday night and will be a sponsored event.
I look forward to seeing you all in Seattle, WA.
We are all deeply saddened at the sudden passing of Richard (Dick) Farmer recently. He was a great supporter of the Processing Division and worked hard to make a difference in the safety and training of everyone involved in the processing business. Our deepest condolences go out to his family and friends.
