Schedule

Each day will start with registration followed by a keynote lecture. The day will continue with workshops in three parallel sessions. Each workshop will be five hours a day divided into three sessions: 2 h, 1.5 h and 1.5 h. As the workshops run in parallel, it is not possible to complete more than one workshop a day. 

The registration and coffee breaks (two each day) take place in Jakobi 2-124, the foyer of lecture hall for keynote lectures (Jakobi 2-226). 

Lunch is not provided, as there are several restaurants, cafes and pubs nearby that have reasonably priced (4-6 €) daily offers. Check under venue for additional info and recommended places. 

Please remember to register by signing the registration sheet each morning at registration desk and also at every workshop! This proves your presence in order to get 2 ECTS and forms the basis for all of the event funding.
