The Melbourne Roadshow is only two weeks away – will you be there?  

 
This Roadshow offers you a great opportunity to hear about and discuss latest developments in water quality monitoring and analysis, with leaders in the field.
 
Highly acclaimed Professor Jorg Imberger (Western Australia 2008 Scientist of the Year, Premiers Award), will be joining an exciting group of presenters and there will be plenty of time for discussing ideas and networking.    

 The Adelaide Roadshow in May was very well attended.  Feedback included:  

“It was all useful... I liked the way all presentations linked.”
 
“Discussion of practical application and education on analytical systems was useful.”
 
 

This is a value event and we hope you can join us!
