TO ALL PARTICIPANTS OF THE 15th SYMPOSIUM ON ENERGY METABOLISM IN ANIMALS



Dear Colleague,





In the following you will find information required to aid you in finalizing registration and payment, preparing papers and arranging your travel to the Symposium venue.



Programme for active participants

At the meeting in Copenhagen it was decided to arrange the Symposium around four main topics: 1) Methodology and Techniques, 2) Environmental and Dietary Aspects, 3) Tissue and Whole Body Metabolism, 4) Growth, Lactation and Maintenance. The sessions will include 36 oral presentations and 56 poster presentations. On each full day there will be 6 to 12 oral presentations with the remainder of papers delivered as posters. For each session there will be a designated period when poster authors should be in attendance. A general discussion, led by an invited Discussion Leader, will close the programme for each session.

Details of the programme in Enclosure 1.



Programme for accompanying persons

A programme for each day of the Symposium has been prepared, including a tour to Copenhagen, excursion in North Zealand and visits to Roskilde Cathedral, different castles and museums.

Details of the programme in Enclosure 2.



Presentation of papers

Oral presentations

Presentations should not exceed 20 minutes to allow 5 min. for questions. A back-projection screen will be in use for 35 mm slides. There is also possibility for computer presentation.

Speakers are discouraged from using overheads, however, this option will be available.

Carousels will be available for speakers to set up and check their slides in advance. Please ensure that these are prepared in good time and given to the projectionist before the session commences.



Poster presentations

Poster boards (1.5 x 1.5 m) will be available along with supplies of materials for mounting these. The posters should include a top section with title (large print) authors and their affiliations. The main body should include a short introduction, outline of methods, clear description of main results and conclusions. The posters should be readable at a distance of 2 m.





Preparation of papers for printing

All papers accepted for oral or poster presentation will be given equal consideration for

publication in the Proceedings. These will be published after the meeting, including summaries of the Discussion sessions, by the Wageningen Pers as part of the EAAP series. Each manuscript must not exceed 4 pages and it should be prepared and submitted exactly as described in the accompanying guide for authors Enclosure 3.



Papers must be submitted by 30 June 2000 by E-mail or on floppy disc to Dr. Kirsten Jakobsen, Department of Animal Nutrition and Physiology, Danish Institute of Agricultural Sciences, P.O. Box 50, DK-8830 Tjele, Denmark, Phone +45 89 99 11 01, Fax +45 89 99 11 66,

Please check the track no. and departures at the monitors.



General Advice

The weather in September can be pleasant, however, day-time temperatures are 12-15o C (eventually over 20 oC). There is also possibility for rain. The Danish monetary unit is the Danish krone (DKK), divided into 100 ører. Currency can be exchanged on your arrival at the airport, the train Central Station or in the hotel. The organisers recommend to check a web site http://www.oanda.com/convert/travel for information on exchange rate of your own currency. Participants are advised to contact the nearest Danish embassy or travel agency to find out the passport and visa requirements for entry into Denmark. All participants are reminded of the need to obtain appropriate travel and health insurance cover.





Looking forward to meeting you in Denmark in September.

Preparation of papers for printing

The papers will be printed by off-set lithography to provide the final proceedings. To meet the

requirements for the EAAP-series we need to ensure uniformity of style and presentation, and

therefore the main text of the paper should be structured to provide a Summary, Introduction,

Materials and Methods, Results and Discussion and References. Figures and Tables must be

included within the 4-page text. The papers should be sent by E-mail or on diskette in electronic

form to enable processing by the editor. Authors should use Microsoft Word for Windows 6 or

a higher version(Word perfect 6.1 or earlier versions will also be accepted) Fax copies cannot be

accepted. If there is a problem with the text processor please contact us in advance and we try to

find a solution. Each manuscript must not exceed 4, A4 size pages and must be prepared

according to the following instructions.
