At right, "Janice Reutt-Robey and Ted Einstein of the University of Maryland, and (right) Kristen Fichthorn of Penn State were just 3 of the approximately 130 physicists who gathered at APS headquarters on December 4 and 5 to sort more than 7500 abstracts for the 2010 March Meeting, which takes place March 15-19 in Portland, Oregon."
