Hotel and facility costs for ADAS Project steering committee members will be paid by the ADAS Project although if it is possible to be covered by your laboratory, it would help ADAS finances. Other participants will need to pay their own way.

There are good public transport links between the Chopin Warsaw airport or the Warszawa Centralna Railway Station and the hotel — ZTM. Taxis are also plentiful.

VISA INFORMATION: If you need a visa to visit Poland please contact us for a letter of invitation and any other documentation required.

PROCEEDINGS: The workshop is an informal meeting, which traditionally does not publish its proceedings. Many people like to present material which is not yet ready for a wider audience. However we offer the opportunity to make the talks available on the ADAS website. This is completely at the discretion of the presenter.

ENQUIRIES: The workshop is organized jointly by the University of Strathclyde and Narodowe Centrum Badań Jądrowych.
