Have you been meaning to prepare an abstract to submit for a SciPy 2010 specialized track (http://conference.scipy.org/scipy2010/papers.html#tracks )? Didn't find the time? Well you're in luck. This weekend, we had technical issues with the email submissions for the specialized tracks. In light of the inconvenience, we've decided to extend the deadline an additional two weeks until Sunday, April 25th. If you have an abstract ready for one of the four specialized tracks, please use the links below to submit it to the program chair. If you previously submitted one and didn't receive confirmation that we received it, it would be a great idea to submit it again to ensure we get it. * Biomedical/bioinformatics chaired by Glen Otero, Dell submit/contact: 2010bioinformatics@scipy.org * Financial analysis chaired by Wes McKinney, AQR Capital Management submit/contact: 2010finance@scipy.org * Geophysics chaired by Alan Jackson, Shell submit/contact: 2010geophysics@scipy.org * Parallel processing & cloud computing co-chaired by Ken Elkabany, PiCloud & Brian Granger, CalPoly submit/contact: 2010parallel@scipy.org Main Conference Submissions Submissions for the main SciPy 2010 conference closed Sunday. Thanks to everyone who submitted. We'll announce the accepted talks Tuesday April 20th.
