Below, we would like to clarify some practical information and present the conference agenda. The most important thing is that you book your return trip yourself.

  • If you are a doctoral student, STandUP can reimburse you for the return trip if your PI sends us an invoice.
  • For the field trips, the bus will return in time for you to take the night train or a late flight.
  • Hotel

  • If you travel by train, you will have a sleeping place on the train for the night between Monday, 9/9, and Tuesday, 10/9.
