Abstract

With the enormous rise in publication costs, the space available for these triennial reports is becoming ever more precious, while the amount of research to be reported on becomes ever larger. Thus while my predecessors have used this introductory section to detail the symposia and colloquia held over the past three years, as well as other administrative matters, I have decided to omit this material (which is available elsewhere) in favour of maximizing the space available for science reporting.
