We will run the science talks and discussion together and make this a science focused meeting with a lot of 

discussion time. Talks should present data and plans and should be short to leave discussion time. 

We will try and schedule talks of similar science together. Please sign up below for talks and see where 

we are. You can also mix in some results from other work/surveys to liven up the discussion and help 

put PESSTO science in context.
