The 8I3M conference is only two months away!

Canada Navy parade

Had the pleasure of visiting Victoria, BC, Canada last week to hold some pre-event meetings for the 8I3M conference (Eighth International Meeting for Manikins and Modeling). After a review of the excellent facilities at PISE (Pacific Institute of Sports Excellence, our conference site) and the Hotel Grand Pacific – confirming the room layouts, choosing menu selections with the caterers, and finalizing the details on shuttle bus transportation between the Hotel Grand Pacific and PISE – I had a little time to walk around and see the beautiful city of Victoria. My visit happened to coincide with “Fleet Week” and the 100th anniversary celebration of the Canadian Navy. Naval ships from Canada, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, South Korea, and the USA were in port, and the streets were full of happy sailors enjoying a day off. They, and I, had a wonderful time, as will everyone attending the 8I3M conference.

For those of you who plan to attend, please register (www.i3mmeeting.com) and make your hotel reservations NOW. The room block we have reserved at the Hotel Grand Pacific (www.hotelgrandpacific.com) is filling up, and we are also getting close to the deadline for confirming the 8I3M space requirements at PISE.

Don’t delay or you will miss out on the year’s premier conference for research involving thermal manikins and human modeling.
