In light of the tragic events in Graz, we have decided to cancel the BBQ after the talks as a sign of solidarity and remembrance. Our catering company, Rosa und Marie, will pre-grill the food that has already been purchased and provide take-away boxes to avoid food waste; we kindly ask you to fill such a box after the lectures and take it home with you.
