3. SSM Abstract Submission
   The deadline for SSM research abstract submission is brought forward by a day to 11.59pm, 12th May 2010 to speed up the process a little. Just e-mail your abstract along with your group number and also your preference for poster/oral presentation to muasrm0910@gmail.com.
   
   
4. Finalization of SSM groups involving in Oral Platform (Paper) and Poster Presentation
   As stated previously, there will be 18 groups in oral platform presentation and 24 groups in poster presentation. However, the finalization of groups for both categories can only be done latest by 17th May, 2010. This is due to the fact that the abstracts submitted by 12th May will be used as deciding factor to place some of the groups who opted for oral platform presentation into the poster presentation category.
   
   However, those who opt for poster presentation, rest assured that you'll remain in the poster presentation category. However, there will be 5-6 out of 24 groups who opted for oral platform (paper) presentation will be picked to enter the poster category.
   
   That being said, for those groups who were picked by then, you'll have approximately 1 week to prepare for the poster printing and presentation. (Since finalization is done by 17th May the latest) For any queries, you can bring it up during the SSM briefing next week on 12th April 2010.
   
   
5. SSM Group Photo Submission (Updated - 2)
   We'll try to arrange for a photo session at the Unit Multimedia sometime around 26th-30th April 2010.

 With that being said, I guess that's all for now. See you next Monday! :)
