Arrival at the venue

Please make your way to the main entrance to the Mérieux Amphitheater and Atrium when you arrive at the venue. You will see the EACR banner by the registration desk immediately inside the main entrance.  You can register from 11:30 CET on Tuesday 12 November. Once registered you will be given your conference badge and pocket programme. If you notified us of any dietary requirements, these will be listed on the back of your badge in both English and French. Please ensure you always wear your name badge while you're at the conference. We aim to recycle as many badges as possible and so it would be really helpful if you could hand yours to the EACR staff after use. 

You are welcome to leave your coat and luggage in the luggage storage area located behind to the registration desk, but please note that this is an unsupervised area and personal items are left there at your own risk. 

Poster presenters of poster numbers 01 – 64 can display their poster on their assigned board as soon as they are registered. The boards are 90cm wide by 140cm tall (portrait) and posters should be no larger than 85cm wide by 135cm tall (portrait). Please find your designated poster board (the correct poster number will be in the corner of each board) and attach your poster. Poster presenters of poster numbers 65 – 127 can display their posters on their assigned boards from the morning coffee break on Wednesday 13 November (10:45-11:15). Materials to attach your poster will be provided for you.  

Solo travellers

If you are a solo traveller, attending the conference on your own, then please feel free to join us at the EACR Banner in the Exhibition area during the afternoon coffee break on Day 1 (between 14:45-15:15) to connect with fellow solo attendees. Our friendly EACR staff will be on hand to assist you, answer questions and offer insights into local dining spots and noteworthy attractions. 

Refreshments 

We will be providing refreshments during our designated Coffee Breaks as well as providing a selection of food during the lunch breaks on Day 1 and Day 2 of the conference.

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.  

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 08 November 2024)
