Local printing 

If you need to print out your poster during the conference, the following local printing companies are close by:

• share.google/iATfqbuKDGSpQkcsu (Kopierservice Dahlem) 
• www.copy-center.de/ (location: Dahlem) 
• www.campus-printshop.de/cms_themen_beitrag_detail.htm?id=152

None of them are directly next to Harnack House, but all of them are in walking distance. 

Job & study opportunities notice board 

We will have a ‘job and study opportunities’ notice board at the conference. If you or your lab/institute has any upcoming job or study opportunities, then please feel free to bring this information with you printed on an A4 sheet. We will add the sheet to the board, so that conference participants are aware of any upcoming opportunities! 

Digital abstracts and posters 

We’re working to reduce the environmental impact of our conferences, which is why we’re providing as much information as we can digitally. Please note that we are no longer providing notebooks at our conferences, though the pocket programme does include some pages for notes.  

The pocket programme you’ll receive contains the scientific programme and an index of poster titles.

All the speaker and poster abstracts, as well as optional digital posters, are available in our searchable digital abstracts and posters area (online from Friday 30 October 2026). Please note that you will need to be logged in to access this page, and it may take a few moments to load!
