Shuttle service
Edit: Because of the number of people arriving at the same time we have changed the shuttle schedule.
Edit 2: The "Tour de Suisse 2010" (cycling race) will be in Ascona on Sunday. Roads will be closed from 13:00 to 13:30. We had to cancel the shuttle at 13:30.
We have booked a shuttle service for the TinE participants who have given us their time of arrival. You can check the schedule below as to which one will fit best with your time of arrival. The shuttle will leave from Locarno railway station at :
- Shuttle going to CSF and to external hotels at : 14.20, 15.20*, 16.20.
- Shuttle going straight to CSF at : 17:20.
Each time it will be a shuttle that can carry 11 people. *There will be an additional shuttle at 15.20 that can carry another 15 people.
Those that have been dropped off at their hotels will be picked up at 17.00 to be taken to the Monte Verità by either their hotel shuttle or that of the Monte Verità.
For the people who did not announce their time of arrival, you can try to fit in one of the shuttle services, without guarantee that there will be vacant seats still available. You can also take a taxi to Monte Verità or try to follow the bus indications which are posted under "travel".
We wish you all a nice trip and an interesting conference.

Centro Stefano Franscini Award
The Centro Stefano Franscini where the meeting will be held will attribute an award ("CSF Award") to the author of the best poster presentation with the goal of encouraging young scientists at the early steps of their career.
During the conference the organizing committee will select the winner according to the following criteria:
- Best scientific poster presentation (content and form)
- The winner should be a young scientist: a PhD student or someone who has accomplished a doctoral degree within the last 3 years, maximum age 33 years.
The Award corresponds to the sum of CHF 500.- (with a framed "certificate" and a small CSF/Monte Verità souvenir).
