VENUE The meeting will be held at the Salle de Conférences of the Institut de Recherche Mathématique Avancée Unité Mixte de Recherche 7501 de l'Université Louis Pasteur et du CNRS 7 rue René-Descartes 67084 Strasbourg France TRAVEL INFORMATION Strasbourg is the capital of Europe, and is located in the northeastern part of France, close to the French-German border. Strasbourg Airport has direct flights to and from a number of main European airports, and a bus-tram connection to the city centre. Strasbourg can also be reached through Basel-Mulhouse airport (train connection) and Frankfurt airport (Lufthansa bus connection). Because of its central location, there are also good train connections to and from Strasbourg, for example from Germany, Belgium and Italy. The IRMA can be reached from the station and from the city centre by taking tram line C direction "Esplanade" and getting off at the stop "Universités". It is then a short walk along rue Edmond Labbé, the building being on your left.
