Public transport

We have arranged bus-passes (for commuting between the city center and the confer-ence site) for all conference attendees. From the center of the city, bus lines 11 & 12 go to the Uithof (where the talks and poster sessions are) every 5-10 minutes.

On-site Registration

You can register on August 24 from noon until 4 pm at the Academie-gebouw. As of Monday, you can register at the registration desk in the Educatorium (at the confer-ence venue). After registration, you will receive a bag containing your conference materials. You have to wear your ECVP badge at all ECVP 2008 events.

Instructions for presenters

Oral PresentationsYou can set-up and test your presentation in the 30 minutes before the start of your session. Presenters are expected to introduce themselves to the session moderator at least 10 minutes before the start of the session. Poster PresentationsPut up your poster at the poster board number corresponding to the number of your presentation in the program book. You can put up your poster from 8:15 am. Posters can stay on the poster boards until the end of the second poster session. Authors with odd poster numbers are expected to be present during the first half of the first poster session (from 10:30 until 11:45) and during the entire second poster session (see the program for the time, which differs per day). Authors with even poster numbers are expected to be present during the second half of the first poster session (from 11:45 until 13:00) and during the entire second poster session (see the program for the time, which differs per day).

Social Program

Don’t believe your eyes!Sunday 24 August, Utrecht University Museum

The event is specially or-ganised for children and their parents, with an interactive workshop on visual illusions by a vision scientist every hour from 12:00-16:00. The museum also contains the her-itage of Utrecht scientists, like the famous Dutch vision scientist Franciscus Cornelis Donders. Open to the general public and all attendees of the ECVP are very welcome.

Opening receptionSunday 24 August, Academiegebouw

Following the Perception Lecture in the Domkerk we will have an opening reception in the Academiegebouw, which is located right next to the Domkerk. Everyone who has registered is welcome. Please wear your name badge when entering. We will serve beverages and different kinds of typical dutch food. Remember: we eat lots of cheese, some less known dishes such as ‘bitterballen’ and ‘poffertjes’, and, like our Japanese friends, we eat raw fish (Hollandse Nieuwe)!

Also, enjoy and appreciate the building. Find the room with all our Nobel prize Laure-ates. Go have a look at the Senate Hall where PhD candidates defend their thesis (and find the portrait of F.C. Donders). Have a look at the Aula, the place where full profes-sors deliver their inaugural speech and also the place where the Treaty of Utrecht (1579) was signed. Last but not least, enjoy the garden!

Conference banquetWednesday 27 August, Leeuwenberghkerk

This year’s conference banquet will be held in downtown Utrecht, in a historical build-ing called ‘De Leeuwenbergh’. This venue was built in 1567 and has had many func-tions (hospital, laboratory, church).

The doors will open at 19:30 on and the dinner will start at 20:00. Vegetarian food is also available. Join us and enjoy the food! You can sign up as long as there are seats available. A ticket is €45,-.

PartyThursday 28 August, Club Arena

Descend to the Old Canal in the heart of Utrecht and join us in the catacombs of the historic city hall for a party that you will remember!!

We will kick off in the Arena with the melodic and rocky sounds of vision scientist CHRIS MULLER and his band SKELET. Next, the illustrious Utrecht dj SIEGER THE CUBE will keep you dancing. When your legs are tired, have a drink in the BAR or lounge away with a cocktail in the CUBAN CAFE. The Latin sounds may even seduce you to a little salsa. Don’t miss it - and a FREE DRINK for the first 80 guests!!

Party location:Arena, Stadhuisbrug 3: That is under the City Hall and the ‘Winkel van Sinkel’. the entrance is down the stairs at the canal. Don’t forget to bring your badge!
