The Lewis Sheiner Student Session

The PAGE organising committee has decided to inaugurate an annual Lewis Sheiner Student Session, both to honour the memory of Lewis Sheiner and to highlight his lifetime passion for student education. Students wishing to be considered for inclusion in this session should submit an extended abstract corresponding to two pages of typed A4 of their intended presentation for the PAGE meeting. The submitted work must have been performed either as an MSc or PhD student, or with the goal that the submitted work will ultimately form part of a PhD thesis. Both 'regular' academic students and candidates with industry affiliations preparing a PhD thesis are invited. Each year a rotating committee of three members, representative of the PAGE community, will judge who should receive the honour of presenting in the Lewis Sheiner Student Session. If elected, the candidate will automatically receive a PAGE-sponsored 300 euro travel grant (on top of potential other grants). A permanent list of students, with links to their presentation, will be maintained below.
