Co-sponsored by DIMACS and the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation.
Talks in this conference are by invitation only. We are sorry that there is no room in the program for contributed papers.
Because of the interest exhibited, we have decided to hold a poster session at the DIMACS International Conference on Computational and Mathematical Epidemiology. Posters will be displayed on bulletin boards and presenters will make themselves available to answer questions/summarize their work to those who visit their poster. If you would like to be considered for inclusion in a poster session, please submit a title and short abstract to poster@dimacs.rutgers.edu no later than May 15, 2002. We will give you an acceptance/rejection within a few days of the deadline.
Some financial support is expected to be available. How much we offer will depend on the number of applications received and in some cases might have to be limited to waiver of registration fees for some of the applicants.
Deadline for Applications: May 24, 2002

Our funding agencies require that we charge a registration fee during the course of the workshop. Registration fees include participation in the workshop, all workshop materials, breakfast, lunch, breaks and any scheduled social events (if applicable).
* College/University faculty and employees of non-profit organizations will automatically receive the reduced rate. Other participants may apply for a reduction of fees. They should email their request for the reduced fee to the Workshop Coordinator at workshop@dimacs.rutgers.edu. Include your name, the Institution you work for, your job title and a brief explanation of your situtation. All requests for reduced rates must be received before the preregistration deadline. You will promptly be notified as to the decision about it.
** Fees for employees of DIMACS partner institutions are waived. DIMACS partner institutions are: Rutgers University, Princeton University, AT&T Labs - Research, Bell Labs, NEC Research Institute and Telcordia Technologies. Fees for employees of DIMACS affiliate members Avaya Labs and Microsoft Research are also waived. Fees are not waived for IBM Watson Research Center employees (the terms of the IBM membership are different from the Avaya and Microsoft agreements).
***DIMACS long-term visitors who are in residence at DIMACS for two or more weeks inclusive of dates of workshop.
Parking permits will be available at the registration table on the day of the workshop.
Please park in lot 64 located between the CoRE Building and the Werblin Recreation Center.
Attendees who have been offered support should keep two rules in mind. Reimbursement for air travel can only be made for travel on US Flag Carriers, REGARDLESS OF COST. (For example, travel on airlines such as United, Continental, USAir, and others that are United States based are allowable. Travel on airlines such as Lufthansa, SAS, Air Canada and other airlines based outside the US cannot be reimbursed by DIMACS.)
The second rule to keep in mind is to get original receipts for all reimbursable expenses.
