Accommodation

All participants will stay in one place: The City Hotel Groningen.  We already booked double rooms for you – please contact us first, don’t book on your own!

The address of your destination:

City Hotel Groningen
Gedempte Kattendiep 25
9711 PM, Groningen
Nederland

If you would be just fine with a bed in a double room without broaching the issue of gender, you don't need to tick any of the above points.

Bicycling

We will use bicycles during some of the days of the Summer School. The company that provides us with them is called Fietsverhuurgroningen and will give you the bicycle on Sunday, 22nd September, at 19:00 or earlier that day.

Please contact us, if you can not reach Groningen before 19:00.

As a deposit they want you to bring 60€ cash that will stay in their shop until you return your bicycle on Wednesday evening, 25th September. Don't worry, if you don't have € in your country, there is an ATM directly next to the bicycle shop where you can get cash money in €. You can use the 60€, that you will receive back on Wednesday afternoon, e.g. for drinks at the following dinners.

 

Now, the question:

Are you able to safely ride a bicycle, e.g. from the hotel to the campus? If not, please state "no" and we will organize a bus connection for you.

Participation Fee

We are a team of universites and research institutions without aspiration to gain profit. Therefore, there is no fee for the scientific activities (e.g. the lectures) during the Summer School itself. To negotiate good prices for accomodation, meals, bus transfer, activities we will ask you for a participation fee covering these expenses. Your journey to/from Groningen is not included. The participation fee is in estimation right now, but expect roughly 899€ for the 7 nights (for people from Groningen much less). If you need a visa for Europe, please register soon.

Now the important financial question: Do you understand, that your registration is only valid after the transfer of the Participation Fee to the Summer School Organizers?

Lecture Confirmation

Please check your lecture information on the summer school website!

(This question is mandatory)

Invoice Address

Many participants have some kind of funding (e.g. a research project) which will cover the costs of the Summer School invoice. Please state here the correct invoice address for either you personal (if you will cover the costs) or the institution (if someone else will cover the costs).

Please think twice and maybe check with your secretary or controller which invoice address should be really mentioned here...

Travel Cost Reimbursement

After the approval to teach at the MemrisTec Summer School 2024 we would initiate a guest lecturer contract and need some personal information from you. Usually, we cover the travel costs and the accommodation for the two nights around your lecture for you. We already booked in the City Hotel Groningen. Please book your tavel on your own and keep it cheap - please avoid flights (only reimburseable if cheaper than a train connection) and taxis (not reimburseable) and book as early as you get the confirmation to teach at the Summer School!

Anything else you would like to let us know?
