A tentative conference programme is available here.
********
Some news concerning the social programme of the conference:
- On Monday afternoon (26 May), you have the possibility of visiting the Royal Alcazar, one of the three UNESCO World Heritage Sites in the city. The city council offers free admission to the palace and gardens on Mondays, but all tickets are nominal and have to be ordered by each of you with your personal data from the official Web page of the Royal Alcazar.
After the last contributed talk on Monday afternoon, we will head to the Royal Alcazar. Those of you who want to join us, please book the nominal ticket from the above official Web page. There are two options: 18h00 or 18h30. We suggest choosing the first option, so that you have enough time to visit the site with calm. Note that the visit is individual and without a guide. Note also that the number of free admission tickets are limited. Once we finish the visit, at 20h00 we will enjoy a welcome (tapas) dinner in 'Restaurante El Cabildo', next to the Cathedral.
