At the same time they are requested to send a preregistration form to the local organisers email: info@isaac2009.org address: Dr. J. Wirth Department of Mathematics Imperial College London 180 Queen's Gate London SW7 2AZ, UK Please use the enclosed form. ISAAC Award Awards will be presented to young scientists of age below 40 at the time of the congress for particular merits in analysis, its applications and computation. Candidates for the awards may be nominated especially by ISAAC Board Members and Session Organisers, but also may apply by themselves. Nominations and applications should be sent before 31 May, 2009, to the address M. W. Wong President, ISAAC e-mail: mwwong@mathstat.yorku.ca An Award Committee will select the awardees. Awards will only be given to participants. In case a prize winner will not be able to participate, she/he will get only the award document but no corresponding price. Accommodation Accommodation should be arranged directly with appropriate hotels. A recommendation for hotels will be included in the second announcement.
