CONFERENCE VENUE, HOTEL and DINNER
- All scientific activities will take place in the MIT Building (MIT-huset, next to Universum) at the University Campus.
- Registration is just outside the lecture hall MA121 at the ground floor of the MIT building (opens on October 11, 11.00).
- Presentations are held in room MA121.

- Box lunches on Oct. 11 are delivered at the registration (only pre-booked).

- The Conference Dinner will take place at the Elite Hotel Mimer, 200 meters eastward from Comfort Hotel Winn, along Skolgatan. Viewed from Skolgatan, the entrance is on the opposite side of the building.
BUS TRANSPORTATION
A chartered bus will be available for transportation:

* From Comfort Hotel Winn to Universum on October 12 at 8.40
POSTER DISPLAY
- People bringing posters are asked to mount them on the designated stands in the MIT Place before the presentation session starts at 13.10 on October 11. The number of your poster can be found in the poster listing that you will get at registration.
We also remind poster presenters that they are expected to give a 45 s introduction to their poster in MA121 at 15.10 on October 11. - Light refreshments will be served in connection with the Poster displays.
TRANSPORATION FROM UMEÅ AIRPORT
- For travelling to the hotel or MIT-huset the fastest is to pre-book a taxi (fixed price; for 3-4 people this is probably also the cheapest transport).
- There is also a bus service. For more information see https://www.swedavia.se/umea/ankomster/
