[Anne Helmond]

Would you like to attend the PICNIC conference, but your university

you are an academic researcher, scientist, or all-round investigator  
we have exactly 25 passe partout tickets (value 1245 Euro) available  
for those with an enquiring mind.

What do you need to do to qualify for a completely free pass to  
PICNIC08?

illustrates your work).
