Venue

Travel

The easiest way to travel to the symposium venue is by flying to Arlanda Airport, which is about 40km north of Stockholm. We advice you to take a taxi from Arlanda Airport, which allows one to bypass the city center. Go to one of the clearly marked official taxi stands at the airport, and take a taxi of one of the following companies: Taxi 020, Taxikurir or Taxi Stockholm (NOT Stockholm Taxi!). Ask for a fixed price; the cost of a one-way trip should not be more than 700 SEK. The companies mentioned above accept major credit cards. See 'Quick-facts' below for more information on taxis. We will make arrangement for taxis to travel back to the airport.

It is also possible to travel from Arlanda Airport to the conference center by public transport, which takes about an hour. The easiest is to take the Arlanda Express to Stockholm, which directly goes to Stockholm Central Station. Form there, one takes the subway (Tunnelbanan) line 13 (one of the red lines) in the direction Ropsten, where you get off. Change to bus 21X or 21, in the direction Gåshaga, and get of at the stop Seglarvägen. When you get of the bus, turn right and walk till you get to the street Högbergavägen, and follow the signs to Högberga Gård from there. It's about a 900 meter walk.

Reimbursements

The cost of living will be covered by the symposium for all invited participants. Travel costs will be reimbursed, up to the maximal amount that was mentioned in the invitation e-mail. Froms to get reimbursed will be provided during the symposium.
