Covered by Registration

1. Your accommodations are on us.

2. Your meals are on us.

3. Opportunity to present.

Not all expenses are covered; here's what to plan to pay for on your own.

1. Travel. Students are responsible for their own travel to and from Milan, Italy. The host institution will provide Visa invitation letters for those requesting or requiring documentation for travel.

2. Other transportation and car rentals. Attendees are to cover their own transportation to and from the airport (MXP).

3. Additional nights. If you wish to arrive early or extend your stay in Milan, Italy, or add additional travel to your trip, you will be responsible for any extra costs and fees.

Here's what we think you should wear and bring.

1. August/September in Milan, Italy, is warm. The lecture hall is air-conditioned. Plan to bring a light jacket or something to layer when indoors (and immediately take off when you walk outside into the heat).

2. Bring some shoes you can walk comfortably in.

3. Leave gowns, tuxedos, tiaras, etc., at home. The dress code is casual. You're meeting peers, colleagues, and mentors, but don't overthink it.

Let's talk about health and safety.

1. If you become ill before, during, or after the event, please contact us to explore options that keep you healthy and avoid spreading anything to your fellow attendees. We encourage participants to secure the necessary health insurance for their trip at their own expense.

2. Stay hydrated. Water will be provided between lectures during breaks.

3. Drink responsibly. Alcoholic beverages will be available occasionally during the event. We love a party, but networking works best if you keep your wits about you.
