We are calling for contributions for a new poster session at this time. Any topics on resistivity/dielectric subjects are welcome, especially for those of you who are going to present in  poster  sessions in SPE, SPWLA, SEG, AAPG etc. All posters will be displayed at the back of the room during the meeting.   The audience is invited to view the posters with the authors during coffee and lunch breaks. Please contact Jing Li (jli04@ slb.com) or Jeremy Pearce (Jeremy.Pearce@shell.com) if you wish to submit an poster for the agenda.
