Dr Brendan Murphy Continuing in the tradition of CERC, we aim this year to continue to President provide a platform for the dissemination of research as well as the de- Cork Institute of Technology velopment of social and research collaborations for future advances. CERC 2013 features a series of talks by internationally recognised Re- searchers and Industrial leaders. In particular we are delighted to welcome the new CEO Dr Kieran Drain of our nearby partner and Na- tional Centre for Physics Research, Tyndall National Institute. Over the duration of this year’s 2-day conference 21 graduate and post graduate researchers will present full research papers, and a further 8 early-stage researchers and authors of proposal papers will present. On day two of the conference a poster exhibition will further show- case the research of graduates at all stages of their research journey. Researchers chosen to present have been peer-reviewed by a panel of Aisling O’ Driscoll international researchers. CERC Co-chair & host organiser Cork Institute of Technology As part of CERC 2013 there are a number of organised social events which we hope will foster friendships and future collaborations. Each element of the social programme will be hosted by a CIT campus. For those who wish to stay longer or further sample Cork’s culture, histo- ry, attractions, sports fixtures, and great food ‘Rebel Week’ (14—20th October) holds a wealth of possibilities. We would like to express our gratitude to the invited speakers, stu- dents and researchers for their participation and contributions. We would also like to take the opportunity to acknowledge the generosity of our sponsors and CIT colleagues who have given of their time and expertise to ensure CERC 2013 is a success. Dr Hugh McGlynn Finally, we look forward to meeting you in Cork this year and hope you thoroughly enjoy both the social and technical sides of the confer- CERC Scientific Panel Member & ence programme.
