Netherlands Astronomy Conference and Radboud colloquium
My first active week (after recovering from a bad cold/flu) in NL I
attended the Netherlands
Astronomy Conference in lovely Berg en Dal, hosted by the
Radboud
Department of Astrophysics.
The conference was great with lots of interesting talks, and a wonderful
opportunity for a comprehensive overview of astronomy activities here.
My registration payment also gave me the opportunity to join the
Koninklijke Nederlandse Astronomenclub,
KNA.
I gave a talk on GOTO in the (inaugural) instrumentation session, and also presented a poster on some ongoing burst work. Also a great opportunity to meet old friends and colleagues, and new.
Due to a late cancellation I also had the opportunity to give the colloquium at Radboud the following week, which covered similar ground to my NAC presentations but gave substantially more time to describe them.
