BBOS Autumn Symposium 2024

The program will start on Wednesday after lunch. The program will end Friday afternoon. 

A detailed program with presentation titles, descriptions of how to get to our accommodation and other information will be disseminated in early October. 

The social program on Thursday evening will be organized by PhD students. 
For this we are looking for people who want to organize the social program. Please let us know if you are interested. 

Thursday afternoon field trips/tours will take place. A separate registration form will be mailed for this, in which you can indicate a preference for an activity. 

This year’s registration for the BBOS autumn symposium will be open before summer holidays start in The Netherlands. Payments will be collected by payment link, which will be emailed to participants after the registration period ends. PhD candidates are expected to attend the full three-day program. Postdocs and staff members will be asked to indicate a time of arrival and time of departure. 

All PhD-candidates and postdocs are expected to share a room. The registration form asks for your preferred roommate, and we will try to accommodate this request as much as possible. In the event we need to assign you another roommate, you will be notified by e-mail. 

Participants from outside IMAU will be charged a registration fee as explained below. 

Registration deadline: 1 September 2024.

• Cancellation before 15 August: full refund. 
• Cancellation between 15 August – 15 September 2024: the full registration fee will be charged, unless we can facilitate someone else. 
• Cancellation after 15 September 2024: no refund. 

When you fill in the registration form correctly, you should immediately receive a confirmation email. If not, something went wrong, so please submit the form again.

If you want to be added to our mailing list, please send an email to science.secr.imau@uu.nl. 

The registration fee for external PhD candidates and postdocs will be €450. This includes a Comfort double room for two nights and all meals. PhD candidates and postdocs are expected to share a room. In the event there are not enough Comfort rooms available, you will be notified by e-mail, and we will try to book you an Economy room instead. We will change the fee accordingly.

By signing up for the BBOS autumn symposium, PhD candidates agree to pay the full fee of €450.

Postdocs are asked to indicate the time of arrival and departure. For postdocs that participate one or two days, the registration fee will be reduced.

The registration fee for staff outside UU/IMAU (single room) will be €540. Staff members are asked to indicate their time of arrival and time of departure. If staff outside the UU/ IMAU participate for one or two days, the registration fee will be reduced. Staff members will be assigned a single room.

By signing up you agree to: 

• pay the participation fee and overnight stays as mentioned above

• follow the rules of conduct drawn up by the UU (https://www.uu.nl/sites/default/files/en_code_of_conduct_uu.pdf).
