stegmann@icf.unam.mx

Participation fee:

250 US Dollars, 125 US Dollars for students. 

The conference fee includes coffee breaks, lunches and the conference dinner. The fee can be payed in US Dollars, Euros or Mexican Pesos. Cash and Travel checks are welcome. Personal checks and credit cards can not be accepted. Invited speakers are liberated from the conference fee. Please contact the organizers, if your situation requieres a waiver of these fees.


Venue & Housing:

The Gathering will take place at the Centro Internacional de Ciencias (CIC), which is located on the campus of the Universidad Autónoma del Estado de Morelos in Cuernavaca, Mexico.  


A limited number of rooms is avaliable at the CIC guesthouse, located in the citycenter of Cuernavaca.

The hotel "Posada de Tlaltenango" offers a special rate of 900 Mexican Pesos per night. Please contact us if you are interested in a reservation.

Arriving at the airport in Mexico City, you can take an autobus going directy to Cuernavaca. The company is called "Pullman de Morelos". At terminal 1, the ticket counter is located inside the airport on the second floor (flights arrive on the first floor).  At terminal 2, the ticket counter is located outside the arrival area. All busses leave from terminal 1, but stop at terminal 2. Buses operate from 4:00 to 0:30, approximately every 30 minutes. The ticket costs 250 Mexican Pesos (14 US Dollars). It takes about 90 minutes to Cuernavaca, depending on the traffic. You will arrive in Cuernavaca at the "Casino de la Selva" bus station, where you can take a taxi. We recommend to buy the taxi ticket inside the bus station at the counter. A taxi to the CIC guesthouse costs about 70 Mexican Pesos (4 US Dollars).
