A mini-symposium consists of one or more sessions of 6 time slots each (one time slot equals to 20 min. incl. discussion). Within mini-symposia keynote-lectures equal to a total of two time slots can be assigned. The (co-)organizers of the mini-symposia are responsible for the scientific content. They invite participants and review the submitted abstracts.

Conference Banquet at the Kulturbahnhof (cultural station)

Thursday, August 29th, 2019, 19:30 h

Address:

Südflügel Kulturbahnhof

This cultural stain was built in the late 18th century and reconstructed, after a bombing in World War II, in the 60s. The station always hosts various exhibitions during the Documenta. The famous sky walker is one of the exhibitions of the Documenta in 1992.

The banquet will take place in the "Südflügel", which is part of the cultural station. The location is easily to reach from the campus center by foot (15 min), by bus (10min, Bus 52), by local train (10min, RT1) or by car (5min, several parking spaces with a fee are also available).
