Accommodation can be booked during registration at any of the three options below. Note that the offered rates for the Mespil and Clayton Burlington may differ from current rates available directly through the accommodation’s website. The UCD Campus Accommodation is the cheapest option and it can only be booked via the registration system.

Please note that the only way the local organizers offer to book accommodation is via the official registration form. We are aware of scam emails offering to arrange accommodation for the meeting. Please ignore these as they have no connection with the conference and are most likely a scam.
