Hi What is the format for the biographies? Can they be sent via email? --------------------- We actually now specify sending them via email. Biographies can be simple text format usually just one paragraph (50-60 words). The copyright forms (we need original signed, hard copy) can now come with the hard copy of the paper. For typical biographies see http://www.irps.org/01-39th/tp_detail.htm and click on any author name that has a hyperlink associated with it. i.e. http://www.irps.org/01-39th/1_1KimYP.htm. Send biographies email to irps@twcny.rr.com. IRPS also likes to have biographies of all the coauthors.
