    Lodging All plenary speakers will have their accomodations arranged by the organizers and will be provided with a single room unless they request a roommate. Participants who would like their room arranged and paid for should contact the organizers. The organizers will then make the appropriate reservations. Note that we may require regular participants to share a double room if lodging is being paid for by conference funds. Further information on lodging will be provided at a later date.

    Financial Support Lodging will be provided free of charge, though those who are not giving a plenary talk may be required to share a room. Limited travel support is available for participants. Graduate students and young researchers will be given priority. When determining the level of support, we may take into account whether the participant contributed a talk. In order to apply, e-mail one of the organizers.
