[alife] BIONETICS 2011 - Call for Special Session Proposals

[Dr Paul Mitchell]

Dear Colleague,

It is with great pleasure that I invite you to submit a Special Session 
proposal for BIONETICS 2011 which will be held in the historic city of 
York, UK from December 5^th -- 7^th 2011.

This year's conference continues its tradition of providing a 
world-leading and unique opportunity for researchers and practitioners 
from diverse disciplines to come together and pursue an understanding of 
the fundamental principles and design strategies in biological systems, 
and leverage those understandings to build bio-inspired systems. For 
more information, please see: http://www.bionetics.org/ and 
http://bionetics.org/cfsessions.shtml

As a Special Session Chair, main responsibilities would include putting 
together a call for papers and inviting people to join a session 
specific technical programme committee. You would take a lead role in 
soliciting paper submissions and managing the review process. We hope 
that session chairs will be able to join us at the conference in 
December to chair the session. I will be advising and assisting where 
possible as overall Special Sessions Chair.

If you are interested in organising a special session, please e-mail me 
with a proposal (to include the name of the proposed special session, 
tentative theme, scope and topic areas of interest, and the names of 
special session organisers, typically two) by *Friday 17^th June* at the 
latest. This will then be considered by the organising committee.


If you have any queries, please don't hesitate to contact me.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Kind Regards,

Paul Mitchell

Special Sessions Chair, BIONETICS 2011
