Zusammenfassung: The ASOS meeting has been held once every three years since its inception in Lund in 1983 and has provided a forum for atomic spectroscopists and astronomers from around the world to meet and discuss atomic data from the perspectives of their production and application.

The 10th ASOS meeting will be organized by University of California Berkeley Space Sciences Laboratory. It will comprise three days of invited talks, contributed talks, and poster presentations. The conference will begin with a welcome reception on Tuesday evening. An outing to locations in the greater San Francisco Bay Area is also being planned.

The ASOS conference represents an ideal occasion for students wanting to learn about atomic physics and its applications in astrophysical and laboratory plasmas. Student participation is highly encouraged. Attempts will be made to defray some of the cost of student participation.

Zusammenfassung: This workshop is to bring together a group of scientists, mathematicians, and physicians to discuss the device-biological interactions at the material-tissue interfaces from the perspective of medical efficacy and scientific mechanisms. Medical, engineering, and mathematic tools will be used. The goal of the workshop is to identify challenges and opportunities in the fields to stimulate collaborations among physicians, scientists, and mathematicians. Topics of the workshop include 1. Biological reactions to foreign material (implant), including blood clotting and inflammation reactions; 2. Bacterial colonization at implant surface and biofilm formation; 3. Responses of tissues to the electric stimulations and sensing; 4. Mechanical interactions between implants and the tissues: in vivo loading conditions and their effects on tissues (e.g. atrophy and hypertrophy).

Zusammenfassung: LIBS 2010 will focus on the scientific and commercial developments, as well as applications of Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS). A significant feature of this technique, currently under rapid development, is the capability of remote/standoff and real-time determination of the chemical composition of any sample, whatever its nature or physical state.
