PLEASE REGISTER
To help us plan the day, please register on the registration form as soon as possible (registration deadline May 31).
When registering you will have to provide the title and abstract of your contribution and you will be asked to indicate how many persons will join you for the dinner event.
You will also be asked what kind of physical activities you and your partner/family want to join. Right now you can choose between football, ultimate frisbee, boule and kubb (several choices are possible). In case you have other suggestions for sport activities, please feel free to add them in the suggestion field. We are planning to organize a small tournament, provided there is sufficient interest in the sport activities.
Finally, we will need some support with preparing the barbecue. Let us know if you want to help by checking the corresponding box. Thanks!
