SISSA (Trieste), October 6 to 8, 2009


Information sheet


Venue: Lectures will be held in Room D of the main building of the International School for Advanced Studies (SISSA). Information about the School location, how to reach it, and how to reach Trieste, are available from this page. SISSA is located in the Miramare campus, nearby the International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP). This ICTP page also contains useful information on how to reach the Miramare campus.


Accommodation: participants are requested to make their own hotel booking. Here you may find a list of hotels in Trieste which make a special treatment to SISSA guest (pdf file). Some tips/explanations:
  • Sorry, the explanations in the file are in Italian.
  • When you book mention that you are attending a SISSA activity.
  • Check the price (it should be a reduced price for SISSA guests, and should correspond to the one given in the list). Check if breakfast is included.
  • Most hotels in the list are located in downtown Trieste, so that if you stay in one of them, you need to daily commute with SISSA (buses No. 6 and 36).
  • DUS means "Doppia Uso Singola", i.e., a double room used by one person. It has an intermediate price between single and double.
  • Displayed telephone numbers (040 xxxxxxx) are for calls from Italy. If you call from abroad, you need to add the international calling code + 39 for Italy + 040 xxxxxxx; for instance, to call the number 334455 in Trieste from France, you need to dial 0039 040 334455. 
If you need help with the booking, you may ask the conference secretary, Dr. Emanuele Tuillier Illingworth, +39 040 3787 598 (from August 10).
