Venue

The conference will take place in Ghent, Belgium. As can be found on Tripadvisor “Ghent's city center is a pedestrian area that is like a museum to early Flemish architecture and a testament to the city's medieval might. Impressive Gothic sites, such as dramatic St. Bavo's Cathedral and the Castle of the Counts, inspire awe.” Not convinced? Read this recent article in the Washington Post!

 

In order to encourage networking and lively discussions, we aim only at in person presentations (i.e. no possibility to join online).
