The final details are still being arranged, but the attendance fee is likely to
be c. 40 Euro for the whole day, including the full symposium documentation
package; lunch, coffee/tea, and other refreshments; and the Reception at the end
of the Symposium. There will be a discounted fee for unwaged students, on
production of evidence of their student status.

Places will be limited, so we ask you to express your interest in attending as
soon as possible. We will then offer places on a first come, first served basis.
Please email Iztok Kosem (kosemi at aston.ac.uk) now, and he will send you more
