Lunch, Buffet, Conference dinnerLunch meals will be taken on the Campus, at 5-10 minutes walk from the site of the conference. A buffet will be offered on Wednesday 29 before the afternoon social program. The conference dinner will take place in the Parc de la Tête d'Or, in a nice area in front of the lake.
