Fees & Financial Support

We do not charge an intrinsic conference fee!

The conference venue is rented with financial support from COST MecaNano.

Unless otherwise stated, the participants are expected to cover their own travel costs, accomodation and pay for their own meals. Please understand that COST rules do not allow us to subsidize full meals.

A conference dinner will be organized on Tuesday 20. May. An additional cost will be associated to the conference dinner (approximately €40-50) to be paid 2 weeks before the event. Further instructions will be provided as soon as everything is arranged.

MecaNano will strive to refund travel costs, in particular for early career researchers and based on merit, as possible within the available budget as long as they are MecaNano members at the time of the application.The financial decisions will be announced during the week after the closure of the abstract submission. Please submit your abstract on time and tick the corresponding box in the registration form!

If you are eligible for refund, please mind the COST rules before arranging your transport and accomodation. Please be aware that all travel reimbursements are administered AFTER successful participation to the event and that processing your refund can take up to several months, so your patience is kindly requested.

REMEMBER: Only members MecaNano will have the opportunity to apply for travel refund. If you are not already a MecaNano member, please join (no fees!) through the e-COST platform as soon as possible.
