Eastern Analytical Symposium

The 11th Eastern Analytical Symposium and New York Conservation
Foundation Conservation Science Annual (EAS/NYCF CAS)
November 15-16, 2004
Somerset, NJ, USA

The New York Conservation Foundation (NYCF) coordinates and
co-supports the Conservation Science Annual (CAS) sessions, as part
of the annual EAS technical program (November 15-18, 2004). Since
1994, the EAS Program Committee, NYCF  and other sponsors have
supported these sessions of invited papers on current analytical
methods, technology and results in conservation science.  In 2004
for the 11th year the EAS/NYCF CAS  will feature two full days of
papers from American and European conservators and scientists in
applied and research fields.

EAS  offers several other sessions, short courses, workshops, and
seminars of interest for conservation science and analysis.  Also
this year, EAS and NYCF begin  a special seminar for college
students on Chemistry Careers in Conservation, featuring
presentations from conservation professionals in research and in
treatment laboratories.
