Terry Cosgrove, who retired in Autumn 2012, has made significant contributions to the field over the last 40 years. This conference celebrated his outstanding career. A number of Terry’s close associates, past and present, agreed to speak at what was an entertaining review of the field and Terry’s impact on it.

There was a reception and conference dinner on the evening of 27 June 2013 at M-Shed, Bristol’s new flagship museum (http://mshed.org/). The reception was sponsored by XiGo Nanotools.
